On 8 February, Epigram was joined by the University of Bristol's Chair of Cognitive Psychology, Professor Stephan Lewandowsky to hear about how disinformation and conspiracy theories spread and what their appeal is. Professor Lewandowsky is an internationally-renowned expert in this subject, having written extensively on it for both academic and popular media, as well as advising governments on how to combat the spread of misinformation. This event was hosted by Georgiana Scott, Epigram's Deputy Editor.
This event was part of the first Bristol, Britain and Beyond festival organised by Epigram which ran from 6-13 February 2021.
