Alice is Professor of Public Engagement in Science at the University of Birmingham. She is an anatomist and biological anthropologist, author and broadcaster who has presented more than 100 television documentaries and written numerous popular science books.
The Keith Palmer Lecture Series was established to promote the “public understanding of natural science” by a distinguished invited speaker for a not only-University audience. The events featured in the series are widely publicised both within and outside the University community and are on a relevant topic of public interest with an audience drawn from a wide range of groups across the Midlands.
