    "The day was really useful to me, being a first-year PhD, in order to understand how other research students work and what standards I am supposed to attain. Talks were also very interesting in themselves, and so was Quassim's contribution."

    Nicola Spinelli, 1st year PhD Student

     

     

    "It was a really great way to find out about some of the research going on in the department, and it would be great if it could become a regular(ish) thing as a bit of a supplement to the graduate seminar - it's good, I think, for us research students to have venues like this to present our work."

    Dave Allen, 1st year PhD Student
