Richard Gleave, Public Health England and Professor Sue Dopson, Said Business School give a talk for the Green Templeton Lectures 2017: Delivering Health: Clinical, Management and Policy Challenges. The challenges presented when attempting to get research evidence into medical practice are notorious and, because of this, there exists a healthcare gap which warrants discussion. The relationship between the professions, management and government inevitably leads to one important question: 'who is accountable for quality improvement?' This lecture explored the term 'accountability' in relation to evidence based healthcare, and outlined the difficulties faced when attempting to implement research in both policy and medicine. For those of you weren't able to make it to this instalment of the Green Templeton Lectures, we have provided a full summary of the talk (PDF).

Politics by Numbers: How Social Media Shape Collective Action
Professor Helen Margetts, Director of the Oxford Internet Institute and Professor of Society and the Internet, University of Oxford gives a talk on social media and how it can shape collective action. The internet and social media bring political change, allowing 'tiny acts' of political participation which can scale up to large-scale mobilisation of millions - but mostly fail.
These new forms of mobilisation increase instability and uncertainty in political systems, challenging policy-makers in both democratic and authoritarian regimes. But they also generate new sources of large-scale data.
Drawing on research carried out for the new book Political Turbulence: How Social Media Shape Collective Action (Margetts, John, Hale and Yasseri, 2015, Princeton University Press), this lecture discussed how social media is changing political systems - and how data science tools and methodologies might be used to understand, explain and even predict the new 'political turbulence'.
