About
Steve Peters, author of the UK's most popular self-help book, The Chimp Paradox, will speak in Cambridge (Homerton College) on 9th March 2026 at 13:30, in an event hosted jointly by Michael Coleman (Department of Clinical Neurosciences and Churchill College) and Jane Warwick (Faculty of Education). Attendance will be free and is open to all researchers, postgraduate students and administrators throughout the University. Seats are limited, however, so please register early if you are interested, and only if you are sure you can make it on the day.
Professor Peters is particularly well known for providing highly effective psychological support to many elite sportsmen and women, from Sir Chris Hoy and Victoria Pendleton at the 2012 London Olympics to Adam Peaty in the Paris Olympics and snooker champion Ronnie O’Sullivan. However, his simple and well-communicated model for the working of the human mind that lies behind these successes is highly transferable to all endeavours, including academic research, teaching, and administration. This talk will explain how.
