Our Brown Bag research talks and discussions are, as the name suggests, 60 minutes lunchtime sessions. The ongoing research work showcased in these sessions will give students and staff plenty of food for thought to munch on and discuss in a friendly, informal and cross-disciplinary environment. Come along and join in the discussion!
If you are interested in presenting your own work, please get in touch with us via email: [email protected].
