On 15 June 2022, our community gathered together for the Doctoral Research Conference, to celebrate the excellence and diversity in doctoral research at the University.

We enjoyed an amazing range of presentations from students, an inspiring keynote presentation on entrepreneurship from Dr Fiona Marston (Royal Society Entrepreneur in Residence), student-made films and posters, and image and object exhibitions.

It was a fascinating and engaging afternoon, providing an opportunity to gain an appreciation of the great things doctoral researchers are doing across a wide range of disciplines. We would like to thank everyone who was involved and to congratulate the prize winners. We look forward to seeing you at next year鈥檚 Conference.
