Many people - including those who research their own family history and even some historians - have mistaken ideas about marriage, family formation, and mortality in the British past. This talk will correct some of these assumptions and discuss why it is so tempting to believe them. With the help of lots of images - source material such as censuses and parish records, family photographs, maps, and some straightforward (and carefully explained) graphs - the talk will put family and local population histories into a broader temporal and geographic context. Alice Reid has lived in Cambridge for 30 years. She is Professor of Demography at the Geography Department, University of Cambridge, and Co-Director of Campop (the Cambridge Group for the History of Population and Social Structure). Most of her work examines geographic and social differences in population processes in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but the talk will draw on a wider body of work from Campop's 60 year lifetime.

Join us for this course, focusing on assessing working scientifically in primary science. This course will explore how children, ‘work scientifically’ within the Primary Science curriculum. You will explore what ‘working scientifically’ skills primary pupils learn and the progression of these from Early Years through to Key Stage 2. We will explore how opportunities for pupils to demonstrate these skills can be built into your Science Curriculum, ensuring their full coverage and a range of enquiry types. We will also consider how accurate assessments (both formative and summative) can be made and the power of peer and self-assessment within this context.

Location: Sophi Taylor Building, Niab, Park Farm, Cambridge, CB24 9XW Date: 24 October 2025 Time: 9:00 - 14:30 Free event Agri-Tech Week is an annual event organised by Agri-TechE. The aim of Agri-Tech Week is to showcase innovate technology that is being developed and used in agriculture. The series of events create opportunity to meet those adopting cutting-edge technology and increase multi-disciplinary collaboration. This event is being co-hosted by Niab and the Centre for High Carbon Capture Cropping. The event will showcase novel ways the agricultural sector is working with major industries to reduce carbon emissions and work towards Net Zero. The sectors that will be highlighted during the event are food, textiles, transport, construction and energy. To demonstrate the role agriculture plays we will have speakers from agri-tech businesses who are using crops to decarbonise industries. We will also discuss the crops that can be grown to support innovative ways to reduce pre- and post-farm gate emissions for a wide variety crops including hemp, flax and miscanthus. Aims for the day · To explore the role alternative crops can play in a range of industries including agriculture in meeting Net zero targets. · To discuss challenges to implementing these crops at a wide scale and their associated infrastructure. · To explore the role that regenerative agriculture systems can play in meeting Net Zero targets · To review the implications for all cropping systems (not just combinable crops) and consider whether changes in the underlying principles might be needed Agenda · 9.00 - 9:30 – Coffee and registration · 9.30 – 9.45 Welcome and housekeeping · 9.45 – 10.00 CHCx3 project update · 10.00 – 12.30 seminars that will cover how different cropping options can provide benefits to different industries · 12.30 – 13.30 Lunch · 13.30 – 14.30 Workshop · 14.30 End of event Information Source: Niab | eventbrite
