We're Not Going Back
2024 is the fortieth anniversary of the 1984/85 miners’ strike, a dispute that still resonates today. But the strike wasn’t just about pickets vs police – in this hard-hitting musical comedy there are no miners and no cops. Instead, we follow the fortunes of three sisters in a pit village, hit hard by the Government’s war against the miners and determined to set up a branch of ‘Women Against Pit Closures’.

He applied to the scheme because he wanted to understand how energy policy is developed, implemented and evaluated; whether current changes are sufficient to meet the demands of decarbonisation, and to see who calls the shots on these.

In Echo: Music in a Cold Climate – sounds of Hansa Europe
This fascinating programme explores the instrumental music that passed between these ports and countries in the 16th and 17th centuries, from dances to sonatas, including Pavans inspired by John Dowland’s famous Lachrimae to elaborate music by major figures such as the German/Danish organist Dietrich Buxtehude, a precursor of Bach. In the virtuosic hands of Gawain Glenton’s In Echo, these rarely-heard gems will sparkle as brightly as they did in centuries past.

We show that the flocculation of mud, with floc diameters greater than 10 μm, in freshwater is a ubiquitous phenomenon, causing the sedimentation of mud to be driven by changes in local hydrodynamics.

CELLS / GLAD seminar: Professor Mary Ziegler: Personhood: The New Civil War over Reproduction
Personhood: The New Civil War over Reproduction What’s next for the battle over abortion? Mary Ziegler argues that simply undoing Roe v. Wade has never been the endpoint for the antiabortion movement. Since the 1960s, the larger goal has been to secure recognition of fetuses and embryos as persons under the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, a step that the modern antiabortion movement argues would make liberal abortion laws unconstitutional.

Stuart Grieve (Queen Mary, University of London): 'Forest-landscape dynamics: Terrestrial Laser Scanning as a tool to link forest structure and landscape form in 3D'
Recent developments in Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) have unlocked our ability to quantify landscape and forest structure at unprecedented spatial scales, resolving individual branching structure and fine scale microtopographic variability in tandem. We have applied this technology to a collection of forest plots across Europe, capturing data across a climate gradient, and representing a broad range of species distributions and landscape forms.

"No (Disciplinary) Limits": A Workshop for the 'Pasts in the Present' Project
The ‘Pasts in the Present’ project revolves around two fundamental questions: what is the cultural and social impact of former eras in the 21st century, and how does this interact with academic discourses? These questions have become increasingly important in the 21st century as ideologies of nation, often connected to racism and intolerance, have weaponised ideas about the past for contemporary political ends--and implicated academic disciplines in doing so.

Fretwork and Alexander Chance: Orlando Gibbons at 400
Orlando Gibbons, whose refined and deeply expressive works represent the pinnacle of Jacobean music, died on 5th June 1625 at the young age of 41, while travelling to Canterbury with the Chapel Royal to receive Charles I’s bride, Henrietta Maria. His untimely death was mourned across English culture, and we mark the anniversary with the first of two concerts given in Durham in 2025 by legendary viol consort Fretwork.

The Rochester Lecture 2025: The Route to Attosecond Light Pulses
When an intense laser interacts with a gas of atoms, high-order harmonics are generated. In the time domain, this radiation forms a train of extremely short light pulses, of the order of 100 attoseconds. Attosecond pulses allow the study of the dynamics of electrons in atoms and molecules, using pump-probe techniques. This presentation will highlight some of the key steps of the field of attosecond science.
