Clare Hall is delighted to be hosting a remote talk, tour and live Q&A on the scientific examination of the Shroud of Turin by Emeritus Fellow, Professor Peter Wadhams, within the University of Cambridge’s Alumni Festival 2021.

Professor Wadhams will talk us through the many questions surrounding the Shroud of Turin which have left scientists baffled for decades. Guests will learn about the cutting-edge research methods being pursued to delve further into this artefact, and then enjoy a digital tour of the royal chapel in the stunning Cathedral of Turin where the Shroud is housed. The event will conclude with a live Q&A with Peter via Zoom.

The event is open to all and will take place on Sunday 26 September 2021 from 4pm. Learn more and book your place via Eventbrite.
