BSPHN is the independent voice for behavioural and social science applied to UK population and public health. We advocate for the use of behavioural and social sciences to reform policy, practice and service delivery to deliver a fairer, healthier UK.
Human behaviour isn’t simple — and that’s exactly why it’s fascinating.

We’re excited to welcome Professor Paul Dolan from LSE to BSPHN 2026, where he’ll explore wellbeing, behaviour & the complexity of the environments that shape our choices.
