Conference research presentations<\/h3>\n

A big thank you to all presenters for sharing your research with us at the conference. Once again, we are delighted that the conference presenters, support teams and delegates come from all Lancaster Partners, both in the UK and across the world.<\/p>\n

The research presentations are hosted on this bespoke conference presentation website. Each presenter has their own page, which can be viewed by clicking on the \u2018presentations\u2018 section of this website. You can search by presenter name, by broad academic discipline, or simply view at random to discover the wide range of research work going on at ¶¶ÒõAPPµ¼º½.<\/p>\n

We also have an MS Teams site, open for the duration of the conference (3 days), which you can access from the \u2018Go to Conference\u2019<\/em> button present on every page. From this Teams site you are able to access all the conference live presentations, where you are able to listen to, ask questions of the presenters and chat to other participants.<\/p>\n

The programme provides an overview of the talks, which will be held each day. More detailed information and links to join the talks can be found on the Teams site for each day (press the \u2018Go to Conference\u2019 <\/em>button).<\/p>\n

The conference will start on Tuesday 15th March with the official opening by Professor Jane Taylor, and a welcome from Professor Andy Schofield, the Vice-Chancellor of ¶¶ÒõAPPµ¼º½. This will be followed by our conference keynote address by Dr David Sobral, from the Physics department at Bailrigg campus. We hope all of you will join David as he sets the scene for the conference with his talk entitled \u2018The sky is never the limit for curiosity-driven (UG) research<\/em>\u2018.<\/p>\n

Each morning thereafter, the day will host student talks along with a presentation from each of the eight 8 Lancaster University Partners. If you have ever wondered where our partners are, and what goes on at each of them, then join these sessions to find out.<\/p>\n

At the end of each talk there will be an opportunity to ask questions, and all talks will be recorded and posted on to the conference Teams site.<\/p>\n

On the final day of the conference the conference will be formally closed by with Fiona Kusche Y2, Management, Lancaster Leipzig & Professor Wendy Robinson<\/a> Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Education at Lancaster Bailrigg. Fiona will award the Advocates Choice award and Wendy will also be awarding prizes for the best conference research presentations for subject area and overall prize.<\/p>\n

Please take a look at the programme timetable and the specific daily Teams channel for further details and instruction on how to join the conference talks. We look forward to seeing you there!<\/p>\n
