Dr Kris de Meyer

A Research Fellow in neuroscience, Dr Kris de Meyer specialises in how people become entrenched in their beliefs, how this leads to polarisation in society, and how to overcome this.

Kris works with environmental scientists, policymakers, and conservation NGOs to support them in communicating more constructively about controversial environmental topics, such as climate change.

He is also the producer of the award-winning documentary, Right Between Your Ears and regularly speaks on BBC radio and TV about polarisation in society, and why fake news can be so believable.
