There'll also be good food and drink, and plenty of space to consume it while mingling and networking with fellow attendees. To save you queuing for your pass on the day, we've arranged a pre-event meet up on the evening before the conference where you can grab your pass and meet other attendees over a drink or two.

The talks on the day take place between 9.30am and 5.05pm, and are followed by a comedy show 'The Festival of the Spoken Nerd' - where sparkling wit meets fascinating science for the insatiably sci-curious.
