Why learn the BSL? It is the first language choice of the Deaf community in the United Kingdom and one of the many sign languages used across the world. However, the BSL is not all about the signing; it challenges you to think differently, how to better connect the brain with the body and improve communication skills through lip-reading, use of handshapes and expressing emotions. Because it is a visual language, the BSL is not only aimed at communication with the Deaf but at anyone with hearing difficulty or disability that makes it difficult for them to community orally. It is also useful in developing more effective clinical communication skills in the University and Colleges and other workplaces once students graduate and begin their chosen careers. To be able to greet and introduce yourself to students and colleagues who may be hard of hearing or deaf alike; to be able to point them in a direction or ask how they feel; this all is a part of our duty of care including the compassion, sympathy and empathy toward others. The BSL may help us demonstrate this better and we should embrace the BSL as an essential feature of everyday clinical life. Dr Zrinka Mendas will be delivering the session and would like to share her experience of being a deaf academic and offer a glimpse into sign language, Deaf culture and the BSL alphabet.

This session will provide line managers with guidance on the extension and ending of fixed term contracts in line with legislation and University policy, providing clarity on when the end of fixed term contract process can be followed and when a situation sits under the organisational change policy instead. The session will demonstrate the justifiable reasons for ending a contract and outline how the process works in practice, including support that can be given to those at risk of redundancy. Please note that this session is not designed to discuss any individual concerns you may have with your own fixed term contract – any concerns must be raised to your local HR team who can offer advice and support.

Yoga with Daisy Worzencraft is primarily about having fun, giving things a go, and trying - with a sense of humour and a smile on your face! It's a non competitive practice, with modifications for different levels. All she asks is that you try, and that you practice with a sense of pleasure and enjoyment, rather than expectation, frustration and tension. For Daisy, Yoga has been a consistent friend in her life - especially in times of need - and had nothing to do with perfecting poses!

How can we turn fundamental research into something that creates a lasting, sustainable impact on human health? Commercialisation can bridge the gap between the lab and the patient, fostering collaborations between academic researchers and industry, and accelerating investment and funding to scale the delivery and reach of health innovations. The team at Cambridge Enterprise help the University’s researchers to use commercial avenues to develop their ideas and expertise. This talk will cover the various ways that research can be commercialised (including through consultancy, licensing or the creation of companies), how to evaluate the commercial potential of an idea or invention, and the support and resources that is available, illustrated by successful examples from the Cambridge ecosystem. The talk will also address how to protect your IP and will give you the chance to make connections and have your questions answers. |

This workshop introduces you to the basics of everyday communication in the BSL. You will learn to initiate a basic conversation, for example, how to greet and introduce yourself to others while using the BSL syntax and asking the questions. The BSL is about listening to what cannot be heard. It is about experiencing what it is like being a deaf person. It is also about how to better use our body language and our emotions when conveying our messages across. All these skills are essential in our everyday communication and this workshop provides a friendly environment to experience them. The prerequisite for joining is a basic knowledge of the BSL alphabet and fingerspelling, which you obtained in the earlier workshop. Join us in the next BSL adventure!
