SUMMARY:Alex Hopkins Lecture and Dinner
DESCRIPTION:This year’s lecture will be delivered by Professor Catherine Green (U93)\, from the University of Oxford. \n\n\n\n\n\nCatherine Green is a Churchill alumna\, English biochemist and recipient of an OBE for her services to science and public health. She is professor of clinical biomanufacturing at the University of Oxford\, where she heads the Nuffield Department of Medicine’s Clinical Biomanufacturing Facility and is a Fellow at Exeter College\, Oxford.   \n\n\n\nProfessor Green’s talk is entitled ‘Making Vaccines\, for the Last Pandemic and the Next One’\, and is an accessible and entertaining insight into the development of of the OxfordAstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine\, as detailed in the book Vaxxers which she co-wrote with Sarah Gilbert. \n\n\n\nThe lecture takes place at the Pfizer Lecture Theatre in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry on Lensfield Road (please note this is a different lecture theatre to previous years\, though on the same site). This will be followed by a drinks reception and dinner in College\, along with after-dinner drinks in the Cockcroft Room. See below for booking details. \n\n\n\n\n\nOur speaker: Professor Catherine Green OBE\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Green’s passion for science was solidified during her years spent studying biochemistry as an undergraduate at Churchill. She went on to receive an Imperial Cancer Research Fund (now Cancer Research UK) scholarship to complete her PhD research. Prior to joining the University of Oxford in 2012\, Green held several prestigious fellowships\, including a Marie Curie Fellowship at the Institut Curie in Paris\, where she studied DNA damage in human cells and a Cancer Research UK Research Fellowship in the Department of Zoology at the University of Cambridge. \n\n\n\nCurrently\, Professor Green specialises in creating vaccines for clinical trials. She and her team at the Clinical Biomanufacturing Facility have developed several novel vaccines for first-in-human trials\, targeting diseases such as malaria\, Ebola virus\, tuberculosis\, influenza\, Zika virus\, Middle East respiratory syndrome and rabies\, amongst others. \n\n\n\nIn 2021\, Green was awarded an OBE for her services to science and public health following her significant contribution as manufacturing lead in the development of the OxfordAstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Alex Hopkins Fund\n\n\n\n\nAlex Hopkins was a student and Teaching Fellow in Chemistry at Churchill College who died tragically young in 2006. Each year\, the Alex Hopkins Fund supports the award of one or more prizes for outstanding overall achievement in the final Tripos examination in Chemistry\, as well as sponsoring an annual lecture to be held in the Department of Chemistry. \n\n\n\nAlex’s infectious enthusiasm and humour characterised his teaching and his exceptional ability to communicate his passion for science. The lectures\, although routed in science\, aim to be as much about entertaining as educating and are designed to be appealing and accessible to all. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking\n\n\n\nIf you wish to attend the lecture only\, please book through the Cambridge Festival site. \n\n\n\nIf you wish to attend the dinner and lecture\, please book for the dinner below and check the box to be added to the lecture guest list. \n\n\n\n\n\nDinner\n\n\n\nAlumni and non-members: please use the form at the bottom of this page to book tickets to the dinner and after-dinner drinks.

SUMMARY:Alex Hopkins Lecture and Dinner 2025
DESCRIPTION:This year’s lecture will be delivered by Professor Catherine Green (U93)\, from the University of Oxford.\n\n\n\n\n\nCatherine Green is a Churchill alumna\, English biochemist and recipient of an OBE for her services to science and public health. She is professor of clinical biomanufacturing at the University of Oxford\, where she heads the Nuffield Department of Medicine’s Clinical Biomanufacturing Facility and is a Fellow at Exeter College\, Oxford.   \n\n\n\nProfessor Green’s talk is entitled ‘Making Vaccines\, for the Last Pandemic and the Next One’\, and is an accessible and entertaining insight into the development of of the OxfordAstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine\, as detailed in the book Vaxxers which she co-wrote with Sarah Gilbert. \n\n\n\nThe lecture takes place at the Pfizer Lecture Theatre in the Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry on Lensfield Road (please note this is a different lecture theatre to previous years\, though on the same site). This will be followed by a drinks reception and dinner in College\, along with after-dinner drinks in the Cockcroft Room. See below for booking details. \n\n\n\n\n\nOur speaker: Professor Catherine Green OBE\n\n\n\n\nProfessor Green’s passion for science was solidified during her years spent studying biochemistry as an undergraduate at Churchill. She went on to receive an Imperial Cancer Research Fund (now Cancer Research UK) scholarship to complete her PhD research. Prior to joining the University of Oxford in 2012\, Green held several prestigious fellowships\, including a Marie Curie Fellowship at the Institut Curie in Paris\, where she studied DNA damage in human cells and a Cancer Research UK Research Fellowship in the Department of Zoology at the University of Cambridge. \n\n\n\nCurrently\, Professor Green specialises in creating vaccines for clinical trials. She and her team at the Clinical Biomanufacturing Facility have developed several novel vaccines for first-in-human trials\, targeting diseases such as malaria\, Ebola virus\, tuberculosis\, influenza\, Zika virus\, Middle East respiratory syndrome and rabies\, amongst others. \n\n\n\nIn 2021\, Green was awarded an OBE for her services to science and public health following her significant contribution as manufacturing lead in the development of the OxfordAstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Alex Hopkins Fund\n\n\n\n\nAlex Hopkins was a student and Teaching Fellow in Chemistry at Churchill College who died tragically young in 2006. Each year\, the Alex Hopkins Fund supports the award of one or more prizes for outstanding overall achievement in the final Tripos examination in Chemistry\, as well as sponsoring an annual lecture to be held in the Department of Chemistry. \n\n\n\nAlex’s infectious enthusiasm and humour characterised his teaching and his exceptional ability to communicate his passion for science. The lectures\, although routed in science\, aim to be as much about entertaining as educating and are designed to be appealing and accessible to all. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking\n\n\n\nInformation about the lecture and booking will follow shortly. \n\n\n\n\n\nDinner\n\n\n\nAlumni and non-members: please use the form at the bottom of this page to book tickets to the dinner and after-dinner drinks. You can make an additional donation to the Alex Hopkins Fund using the form. \n\n\n\n\nAlumni should select the ‘Alumni ticket’ option for themselves and up to one guest to dine (thus using their High Table dining rights to susbsidise the cost). The price includes post-dinner drinks in the Cockcroft Room.\n\n\n\nNon-members of the College are welcome to book a place at the dinner and post-dinner drinks. Please select the ‘ticket’ option.\n\n\n\nFellows should use the SCR High Table sign-up page as usual.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccommodation\n\n\n\nUnfortunately\, this event falls within the College Period of Residence\, even though it is outside of term.
