College Notices

Churchill College

A lecture entitled Churchill’s College: from monster to clone, by Professor Dudley Williams, will take place on Thursday, 11 March 2010, at 5 p.m., in the Wolfson Lecture Theatre, Churchill College.

From mathematics, through physics and chemistry, to biology, the Fellows of Churchill College have made great discoveries: from the structure of DNA to the discovery of Pulsars, to more controversial discoveries such as cloning and in vitro fertilization. Churchill Fellows have been at the forefront of science and scientific debate for the last 50 years and Professor Williams’ lecture seeks to explore these discoveries and look at the impact that Churchill Fellows have had on our society both in the twentieth century and today.

Expertise in and an ability to supervise on English literature of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries (including Shakespeare) will be a priority for the appointing committee.
