As a central figure in education, Professor Grammenos has seen the Maritime industry of London change enormously over his 35 years in the industry. He’s even been responsible for some of the larger changes himself. In this lecture, Professor Grammenos looks at the history of the Maritime Cluster, charts its changes and looks towards its future.

The Data Protection Act 1998 is, currently, the only piece of English legislation which is specifically directed at protecting personal information and an individual’s privacy in respect of it: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/celebrities-the-media-and-the-personal-data-privacy-wars

The Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA) should properly have been called the Data Privacy Act: it is about privacy of personal data and not merely its security. Recent cases - if successful for the claimants - will change the litigation landscape for everyone.

The protection of personal data is, as a result, the fast-maturing celebrity privacy remedy of choice.

How have Christian writers rationalised the idea of divine creation with critical thinking? Professor McGrath explains: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/cosmology-and-creation-how-do-they-relate-to-one-another

This lecture considers some themes within the Christian tradition dealing with the concept of “creation”, noting especially Aristotle’s notion of the eternity of the world, and the tensions this caused for Christian writers such as Thomas Aquinas. We then turn our attention to cosmology, noting the major scientific developments over the last century. The final section of the lecture will consider how a scientific “narrative of origination” relates to a religious “narrative of creation”, and how these narratives intertwine and interconnect.

In the upheaval of the French Revolution, another quieter revolution was born that changed the scientific world forever: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/no-need-for-geniuses-scientific-revolutions-and-revolutionary-scientists-in-the-

The French Revolution is famous for its political upheavals, but few know that it was also a time when Paris was the world centre of science in a way that has never been matched before or since. I will take a tour of the city from the Eiffel Tower to the Champs Elysees, taking in the Tour de France on the way, to show how a small group of talented men and women revolutionised science from physics to biology - and how some of them paid a heavy price.

Professor Ryrie discusses the liberal Protestantism that swept Europe and how it changed the continent and faith: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-dreams-and-nightmares-of-christian-liberalism

In the nineteenth century, some of the Protestant Christians facing new challenges of secular science, history and philosophy decided to listen, to learn from and even to outflank their critics. This ‘liberal theology’ was creative, honest, necessary and – as it turned out – horribly dangerous. This lecture will trace liberalism’s ordeal from its early ideals to its deep involvement in the First World War, and discuss its continuing relevance in the contemporary world.

A breakdown of the complex interlacing of federal and state level laws governing the right to die in America: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-ethics-of-physician-assisted-suicide

The legislation of assisted suicide in the UK is as controversial as the Death with Dignity Act (DWDA) that led it its decriminalisation in Oregon in 1994. The United States Supreme Court subsequently rejected an attempt to have the law declared unconstitutional but steps seem to be needed to address the ethical concerns raised by members of the academic, political, and religious communities, including safeguards to protect vulnerable people. What can be learned in the UK from the USA experience?
