IRM Annual Lecture - free for IRM Members
Every year IRM organises a fascinating lecture that is free to attend for all paid up members. Past lectures have included topics such as "understanding uncertainty" and "risk and reality" from high profile risk experts.
The date for the 2013 Annual Lecture will be announced in mid-2013.
2012's Annual Lecture was delivered by Professor Sir John Beddington CMG FRS FIRM, Chief Scientific Adviser to the UK Government and responsible for the quality of science-based evidence in government decision making. Read about the lecture here.
Please note the slides are not available for the 2012 lecture.
