Parliamentary Links Day 2023 – In-person & Online
20/06/2023 @ 9:00 am - 1:00 pm
Parliamentary Links Day is the largest science event on the annual parliamentary events calendar. It is organised by the Royal Society of Biology on behalf of the science and engineering community to strengthen dialogue with parliament, and to provide MPs with a more rounded understanding of the scientific issues we face.
The theme for this year’s event is Science and Economic Development. Links Day will feature contributions from many distinguished speakers from Parliament, Government and the science community.
You can download a draft event programme ahead of the day. Due to the variability of parliamentary business, the programme is subject to change.
