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 vaccines, tobacco, and misinformation circulating within patient support groups.
This seminar will take place on Thursday, 19 March 2026 between 12:00pm - 1:00pm.
