PGR Symposium 2020

Due to the COVID-19 situation, the PGR Symposium was rearranged to a virtual event on 14-16th July.

The full schedule can be found HERE and joining instructions are being circulated via email - contact Giles Reger if you have not received these.

This year we have two kinds of presentations. Second and third year students are giving oral presentations about their research and first year students are giving shorter poster presentations (replacing the normal poster session, see below). Sessions are organised thematically and are each roughly one hour long.

Posters

Below you can find a subset of the posters that are being presented at the Symposium (some posters have not been submitted to be placed online). We normally run a liev poster session with voting for the best poster. This year we will replace this by an asynchronous vote. Anybody can vote for a best poster using this form.

Click on a poster's image to see the full version. It would also be great if you attend the associated session to learn more about the research and ask questions of the author (but this is not required to vote).
