AGRICULTURE AND ENVIRONMENT The future of food 12 1pm, Charles Perkins Centre Lecture Theatre We all need it, some of us covet it, and we spend a fortune on it. But do we really know much about it? Meeting global food demand is arguably humankind s biggest challenge. Few sectors offer hotter career prospects than the multibillion-dollar global food industry.

SCIENCE Dr Karl s Game of Knowns 1 2pm, New Law Auditorium 101 There are known knowns, known unknowns and unknown unknowns. And then there is Dr Karl Kruszelnicki. The inimitable Dr Karl reigns once more with his scintillating science scenarios, techie tales and tasty morsels to sate even the most haemoglobin-thirsty of his army of followers. Come and have your lunch while Dr Karl divulges why psychopaths make good kings, how smartphones dumb down our conversations and why the left side of your face is the most attractive. He discloses the amazing opportunities that 3D printing will bring, the magic of hoverboards, and spills on the scientific basis of wealth distribution. If your thirst for knowledge is still incomplete, hang around and ask Dr Karl that question which has been burning a hole in your brain. NURSING Do men make better nurses than women? 12 1pm, Level 2, Mallett Street Campus, Sydney Nursing School Conjoint Associate Professor Timothy Wand, lecturer and nurse practitioner, takes on the gender war, provocatively arguing that men make better nurses than women (he concedes that women make great nurses too).
