Important information for event attendees and external visitors
In light of the ongoing government restrictions and advice to mitigate risk of COVID-19 transmission, our events have been rescheduled or moved to online delivery.
Our sites remain on a restricted access condition, and only staff who are doing essential site-specific work or tasks are on site. All other colleagues continue to work from home for the time being.
We have excellent and free to use video conference and conference call systems and are happy to make these facilities available to help you engage with us. Meetings are taking place via video conference with participants joining individually from their own locations; check with the relevant member of staff for advice.
As the situation continues to evolve, please check the UK Government and NHS websites for the latest advice and updates. If you have any questions or concerns, please email events@hutton.ac.uk.

Soil erosion and landslides are caused by weak soil, with significant impacts on the economy. It affects food production and can influence areas liable to flooding. Could we use green engineering techniques to improve soil stability?
Listen to Dr Ken Loades of The James Hutton Institute give a short talk on these issues, then have the chance to put your questions to him in the relaxed environment of Harbour Café. Doors open 6pm.
Free admission and no need to book.
Part of Dundee Science Festival. Full details of the Dundee Science Festival programme can be found on the website.
