That's a wrap folks! It feels like we're just getting started, but the festival is over for another year. Never fear though, plans are already afoot for 2026. Thank you again to all our speakers, sponsors, volunteers and attendees. We look forward to seeing you again next year!

Tonight is the final event of this year’s festival and we couldn’t be more excited! Our 2025 Peagram Lecture is titled Einstein, Bohr and John Bell: Entanglement, Hidden Variables and Quantum Computers and comes from Professor Tony Hey CBE.

Well done again to all the speakers at FameLab Academy last night. It's a shame we could only crown one winner when you all did such an excellent job - everyone can be very proud of what they achieved!

Thank you once again to @brianclegg.bsky.social for last night's fascinating talk on Brainjacking and apologies to those who attended for the technical issues. Tomorrow evening we join @atomsociety.bsky.social in welcoming Professor Susan Downes, who is coming to talk about Macular Degeneration.

It was wonderful to see so many people on the Market Square today celebrating science, even the sun put in an appearance! 🌞 Thank you to all the exhibitors and visitors that came to join us!

Disinformation. Misleading AI. Propoganda. Fake News. Has there ever been a time when we needed more to know about Brainjacking, the science of influence and manipulation? @atomscifest.bsky.social talk at Abingdon Guild Hall, 16 March, 7.30pm book here:

Our first talk of the 2025 ATOM Festival will be ‘Brainjacking: the Science of Influence and Manipulation’ with @brianclegg.bsky.social on Sunday 16th March. In this talk we’ll explore the psychology of storytelling and how stories can be used to inform, influence and manipulate.
