Student 2016

Student Conference 2016
Science and Society: Science and Faith in Action

The 2016 Student Conference was held on Saturday 20th February 2016, at St Luke’s Church Centre, Birmingham, B15 2AT.

We had an excellent time together at the student conference, looking at how science and faith interact in an active and purposeful way that benefits society. You can listen back to all the talks (except Mike’s, sadly), below. All talks and resources are also available on the CiS app.
