The Faculty of Public Health, in partnership with the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine, is launching a new two-part online seminar series bringing together senior leaders, clinicians, public health professionals and academics from across both faculties.
This series aims to move beyond abstract discussion and instead, provide a shared, evidence-based understanding of the scale, mechanisms, and real-world consequences of health misinformation—followed by a practical exploration of how different sectors can respond.
The first seminar, Setting the Scene: Health Misinformation – What is it and why does it matter?, is designed to establish a common evidence base before moving into focused case studies on tobacco and misinformation circulating within patient support groups.
This seminar will take place on Thursday, 19 March 2026 between 12:00pm - 1:00pm.
