CLIC is a research programme spanning both Cambridge and Singapore, combining areas such as neuroscience, linguistics, and cognition to train the next generation of flexible learners, translating cutting-edge neuroscience research into practical, real-world educational applications.
This event will be most relevant for those who would like to learn about the benefits of using Singapore as a testing base, which has a multilingual and vastly different education system; the interventions being developed from the programme for different age groups; or how CLIC benefits from its international nature, bringing together researchers from both the UK and Singapore.
In 2023, they organised a public science festival in Singapore for over 1,500 attendees. This event marks CLIC’s first outreach initiative targeting the wider Cambridge community and relevant UK partner organisations.
Please note there are separate registration links for the workshop (4pm – 5:30pm) and evening reception (6pm – 7:30pm). Please feel free to share the invitation with your colleagues.
