It was a great honour to host Prof Anne Templeton yesterday.

Prof Anne Templeton (University of Edinburgh Philosophy, Psychology & Language Sciences) talk examined two major myths about crowds in emergencies: that people are prone to irrational panic, and that information should be withheld to prevent that panic. Drawing on decades of crowd psychology research, it showed that crowds are typically resilient and that giving people clear information actually empowers them to respond more safely and effectively.
