With our planet heating up, we need to find solutions for how society can not only survive but thrive in extreme temperatures.

Join Professor Ollie Jay, Director of the Heat and Health Research Incubator (HHRI) in conversation with Dr Georgia Chaseling, Dr James Smallcombe and Professor Adrienne Gordon to discuss the effects of extreme heat on our bodies and its impact on our health and wellbeing across the human lifespan. 

Learn about the current and future impact of heat and heatwaves on society and hear how researchers at the HHRI are tackling the impacts of extreme heat with sustainable, low-resource, evidence-based solutions.

So join us on Tuesday 13 December to learn how together we can build a more resilient community to a warming world. What could be cooler than that?
