The study of extraterrestrial matter, from meteorites passing by cosmic dust to sample returned from asteroids, has a long and fascinating history. For centuries, humans have been intrigued by stones from the sky,” but it was only relatively recently that scientists began to understand the true nature and significance of meteorites and cosmic dust. This talk explores the development of the science of meteoritics, tracing its evolution from early observations to the modern era of sophisticated analyses. We will examine key discoveries that revolutionized our understanding of these celestial messengers, particularly focusing on the “Antarctic meteorite revolution” – a period of unparalleled discovery driven by the unique conditions of the frozen continent. During this talk, I will explore this history and explain how scientists have learned to decipher these celestial objects. This journey reveals how meteoritics has helped us unravel the mysteries of the early solar system, shedding light on the formation of planets and the building blocks of life.

The 12th Annual Risk Management and Pharmacovigilance Summit will take place in Berlin on 6–7 May 2026 and will bring together senior leaders from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries to discuss key challenges and innovations in drug safety and pharmacovigilance. The event will explore topics such as AI-powered signal detection, regulatory developments, risk management plans, data integrity, and the integration of real-world evidence into pharmacovigilance systems, providing practical insights and networking opportunities for professionals involved in drug safety, regulatory affairs, and patient safety.

In this talk Zen will take a whimsical look at how music and music making have danced with technology throughout time, and how a digital imagination could replace the automation of today, and perhaps the humans of tomorrow. He will help navigate ways to use those wishes wisely to create the right tools and rules, so that rather than replacing humans, it empowers them with new abilities, skills, and platforms for self expression. Through co-creation we can hopefully prevent the full automation of humanity, and perhaps preserve the act of creativity and art itself!

This session will be led by soft matter physicist Dr Kyle Baldwin to focus on the stable foams that often accompany beer as “head”. Why are beers foamy in the first place, how do the bubbles behave (or misbehave) in the glass, and why is this froth so important? The Physics of the Everyday series aims to introduce the fundamental physics behind everyday things we take for granted in an accessible, fun, and interactive way. Each short talk will be accompanied by a demonstration and investigation, as well as an opportunity for conversation and discussion.

A short talk and workshop, followed by a networking opportunity.
