Security Lancaster, a multi-disciplinary research centre developing the science underpinning the security and protection domain, will be officially launched on Thursday 18th October 2012, 3:30pm - 6pm.

The afternoon will showcase some of the cutting edge research in security and protection sciences at Lancaster University with a panel discussion from some of our leading academics and an exhibition from our promising postgraduate students.
