SUMMARY:Discovery Talk: Changing the Soundtrack of the Ocean
DESCRIPTION:Marine biologist Steve Simpson\, Professor of Marine Biology & Global Change at the University of Bristol\, will take us on an adventure into the world of underwater acoustics in this fascinating talk. Tuning into the sounds of the ocean reveals amazing habitats and behaviours\, but also highlights environments at risk. Discover how sound itself may hold the key to reversing some of the issues facing marine life\, such as the ravages of climate change\, overfishing and pollution. \nSteve and his team use cutting edge acoustic technology to listen to the ocean and gain new insights into the extraordinary abundance of life beneath the waves. Tens of thousands of species of fish\, marine mammals\, crustaceans\, mussels opening and closing\, sea urchins and snapping clams all contribute to an incredible aquatic soundscape. But we are adding to this cheerful cacophony with human-made noise pollution. \nSteve and his team have gained worrying insights into the changing health of precious habitats by listening to the ocean’s symphony in places as far flung as Indonesia\, and Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. Overfishing\, climate change and pollution are all taking a toll on habitats and biodiversity. But all is not lost – through the use of sound\, Steve’s team have found ways to encourage the restoration of habitats and measure their recovery. Steve’s message is one of optimism and active hope – through the use of technology\, and also art\, film and music\, we can bring people together to rewrite the soundtrack of the ocean and create a better future. \n“Listening to the ocean connects us to marine life\, highlights the severity of human impacts\, and gives us tools and stories to underpin active hope and build a better future.” Steve Simpson\, Professor of Marine Biology & Global Change\, University of Bristol \nAbout the speaker \nProf. Steve Simpson teaches marine biology to hundreds of undergraduates and masters students\, and leads a thriving research group consisting of 15 postdoc\, PhD and Masters students\, with active projects in the UK\, Maldives\, Egypt\, Caribbean and Australia. He runs the MSc in Science Communication for a Better Planet at the University of Bristol. He was Series Academic Advisor to the BBC’s Blue Planet II and Netflix’s Our Oceans\, and recently featured in the BBC’s Our Changing Planet. He gives public lectures and media interviews on marine biology\, global impacts and potential solutions\, and remains optimistic that we can work together to restore the oceans for a better future. \nThe event will be chaired by Miranda Krestovnikoff\, TV presenter\, diver and author. \nPre-show dining is available in the bar/restaurant downstairs at the Hen & Chicken\, including a pizza/burger & drink offer for ticket holders. Please contact the Hen & Chicken direct to reserve your table for pre-show dining. Pre-Events Restaurant Offer – Hen & Chicken

SUMMARY:Talk: The Psychology of EMDR Therapy: Rewiring memories
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how our brains process and heal from life’s toughest moments? Many of us carry unresolved experiences—whether it’s a difficult breakup\, childhood criticism\, or a lingering fear—that can quietly block our confidence\, relationships\, or success. \nEye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a groundbreaking therapeutic approach designed to help people move past trauma\, anxiety\, and other emotional hurdles. \nIn this talk\, you’ll discover how EMDR works—by using a combination of focused attention and guided eye movements to “unblock” the trauma stored in the brain and release emotional pain. Unlike traditional talk therapy\, EMDR taps into the brain’s natural ability to heal\, offering relief often in a shorter timeframe. \nTrauma expert Shelly Bradley-Scholey will explore real-world success stories and explain why EMDR has become a trusted tool for millions worldwide. Whether you’re curious about new ways to heal or want to understand how the mind can overcome its deepest struggles\, this talk will open your eyes to the possibilities of modern therapy. \nAbout your host: \nShelley Bradley-Scholey is a UK-based trauma expert\, accredited EMDR Consultant\, BABCP-certified CBT therapist\, and Registered Mental Health Nurse with over 20 years of experience in mental health\, including 13 years in Defence Mental Health Services. She holds a MSc in CBT Research from the University of Oxford and is the founder of Fortitude Psychological Therapy\, offering trauma-focused therapy\, supervision\, and teaching. A guest lecturer at Oxford and Exeter Universities\, published author\, and public speaker\, Shelley integrates EMDR\, Beckian CBT\, and Compassion-Focused Therapy into her survivor-centered\, compassionate approach to healing.
