As the topic of this year's symposium is on bioscience, each student cohort is asked to present their research in a variety of formats:

1st-years: a 2-min summary of their research
2nd-years: a 10-min presentation of their research
3rd-years: poster presentations (research & PIPS)
4th-years: a panel discussion, based on a small number of 10-min talks on students' research experiences

Massive thanks to our student reps - Dave, Selma (both pictured in the photo, below, on the right), Scott, Ara and their second year colleagues - who have superbly designed, organised and delivered an enjoyable, rewarding EASTBIO Symposium.
