Steve Flemming – Special Commendation in Public Engagement 2023

Prof Steve Flemming was awarded the Special commendation in Public Engagement in recognition for his ongoing contribution and commitment to Public Engagement at the Department.

Professor Fleming leads the Metacognition group within the Department and has been an active supporter and advocate for Public Engagement within the Department for many years. He has attended music festivals to trial new apps, participated in the Dear World Project, and more recently, co-produced a film script as part of the Dementia Film Project.

On receiving the Commendation, Professor Fleming said:

“It was a very nice surprise to be given this award – I have thoroughly enjoyed playing a part in a number of projects over the past few years, with a personal highlight being the Dementia Film Project. But really all the credit lies with the Centre’s Public Engagement team, who have been brilliant in transforming public engagement within the Department and ensuring it’s now firmly embedded within imaging neuroscience.”
