A lecture by Professor Richard Jones, Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Research and Innovation at the University of Sheffield: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/sts/sts-publication-events/calendar_archive/2014_11_03_rritalk

Richard Jones who, as well as being one of the UK’s leading nanoscientists, is also one of our most thoughtful commentators on the relationship between science, technology and society.  

This lecture happened on 3 November 2014 and marked the launch of the University College of London Hub for Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI).

The RRI Hub was launched as part of the European RRI Tools project, which aims to develop a toolkit for researchers, policymakers, businesses, civil society and educational organisations to help science and innovation better reflect the needs and wishes of society. The Hub will be a base for research, sharing and training on these issues.
