Event\/activity\/ description
\n<\/strong>Cereals provide more calories to the human diet than any other source. And grain from cereals such as barley are also critical for brewing and distilling, especially of whisky, our most valuable export.<\/p>\n

But we are only just beginning to understand how cereal crops grow and develop, and how this can affect the quality and amount of grain produced. To help us learn more, we\u2019re looking at the genes of barley plants, using approaches developed here in Dundee.<\/p>\n

Dr. Sarah McKim is using these tools in her research to identify and learn more about the genes controlling barley development. She will discuss insights from her research and how we can use this knowledge to help improve the barley we grow.<\/p>\n

Join us at Caf\u00e9 Science Dundee at Avery & Co. at 34 South Tay Street on Monday 20th May 2019, at 7pm. This is a free event and everyone is welcome. There is no need to book in advance but arrive early to avoid disappointment.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dundee Arts Caf\u00e9: Changing Stop and Search in Police Scotland<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Venue\/Address\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>The McManus: Dundee\u2019s Art Gallery and Museum, Albert Square, Dundee DD1 1DA
\nDate and time\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Tuesday 4 June 2019, 6pm\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Event\/activity\/ description
\n<\/strong>The police practice of stop and search in Scotland was at one time being conducted at a rate about seven times higher than that of the London Metropolitan Police. It was unaccountable, largely unrecorded and mostly \u2018ignored\u2019 by political leaders and the media.<\/p>\n

That all changed with findings from PhD research in Edinburgh in 2014. Since then, Police Scotland and the academic community have travelled a long, and at times, very bumpy journey of consultation, evaluation, reform and governance. Once the model of what \u2018not\u2019 to do in times of challenge, Police Scotland now actively engage with others to develop policy and practice from a stronger evidence base and can serve as a model to other police forces in this regard.<\/p>\n

Join Dr Megan O\u2019Neill as she discusses her role in the stop and search journey in Scotland and explores how researchers can actually change our daily lives.<\/p>\n

Everyone is welcome. This event is free and non-bookable. Places are limited so please arrive early to avoid disappointment. Doors open at 5pm.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
