TORCH | The Oxford Research Centre in the HumanitiesHumanities and Science: Culture and TechnologyAn interdisciplinary discussion exploring culture’s interaction with technology Dr Maria Blanco (Associate Professor in Spanish) examines how the question of culture’s interaction with technology gets interesting—not to say sticky—when we broaden our scope beyond the confines of Western Europe and the United States to encompass other parts of the world. In response, Professor Fritz Vollrath (Academic Research Leader, Zoology and Head of the Oxford Silk Group) looks at the history of spider silks, Professor Andrew Wilson (Head of the School of Archaeology and Professor of the Archaeology of the Roman Empire) considers technology and cultural change in Roman...

Department of Engineering Science Centenary LecturesLecture 10: Advances in Biomedical EngineeringProfessor Lionel Tarassenko on "Advances in Biomedical Engineering". Biomedical Engineering is a relatively new subject but advances in body scanners (from CT to MRI) in the last 2 decades have had a major impact on the practice of medicine. Oxford engineers have made significant contributions to the development of medical imaging and in other areas of biomedical engineering also, for example in artificial knees and needle-free injection of drugs and vaccines. The lecture reviewed Oxford's contribution to advances in biomedical engineering over the last 25 years and highlighted how the Department's new Institute of Biomedical Engineering plans to develop technology for the...
