Quo Vadis: What is the value of scientific literacy? | Irena Borzym | TEDxCambridgeUniversity
Irena explores what a truly scientifically literate society looks like, and what some of the barriers standing in our way might be. She explores the horizons that greater scientific literacy might open up and leaves the audience with a real sense of possibility around these issues.
Irena Borzym is the Nicholas Handy Lecturer in Mathematics at St. Catharine’s College, Cambridge University. She lectures to mathematicians and natural scientists but passionately believes that higher levels of scientific and mathematical literacy among non-scientists would have cultural and social benefits for everyone. She would enjoy having time for her special research interest of twistor methods in general relativity. She is a keen supporter of technological innovation and engineering solutions to problems facing the planet. She believes solutions will require a commitment to space exploration. Hobbies include fine art, architectural design and classic cars.
