To mark the 20th anniversary of the Institute of Advanced Study, this special public event asks a timely question: how can interdisciplinarity help us understand and respond to an increasingly complex world? The event will explore what interdisciplinarity means in practice and why it matters in the real world. The IAS Director, Professor Alexander Easton, will be joined in conversation by Dr Fiona Hill, Chancellor of Durham University, and Professor Susan Smith, President of the British Academy.
