Author Talk: The Nature of Pandemics with Dr. Jake M. Robinson

Author Talk: The Nature of Pandemics with Dr. Jake M. Robinson

An ecological exploration of disease, health, and restoration 🍷🧀

Join us for a special evening with ecologist and author Dr Jake Robinson, as he introduces his thought-provoking new book The Nature of Pandemics. Discover how pandemics are not simply medical crises but ecological ones - born from biodiversity loss, habitat destruction, and the disruption of natural systems that once kept disease in balance.

Drawing on a decade of interdisciplinary research, Dr Robinson reframes pandemics through a One Health lens that links people, wildlife, and ecosystems - offering not only a diagnosis but bold, nature-based solutions. Mingle over cheese and wine, ask questions to deepen your understanding of why protecting nature may be our best defence against future pandemics.

Copies of the book will be available for purchase.
