About the Showcase
This new high-profile University event will highlight to a wide audience the outstanding research being carried out by our doctoral students and PhD Plus award holders. Projects drawn from a wide range of subject areas will be showcased through student poster presentations, enabling both participants and guests to discover more about the research being undertaken across the very broad range of research groups and to network with each other.
Poster presentations will be grouped within the following themes (primarily University Strategic Research Group areas):
Ageing and Lifelong Health - Complexity in Real World Contexts - Digital Economy - Energy - Global Uncertainties & Security - Health Technologies - Life Sciences - Living with Environmental Change - Maritime Studies - NanoScience - Neurosciences - Work Futures - Mathematical Modelling
