Join us as we hear from some great neurodivergent and disabled PGR (research) students. This event features an inclusive, accessible, and series of talks, each from a different disabled and/or neurodivergent PGR, talking about their research or experiences of research, including a break for social networking over coffee (and cakes!) and plenty of time for discussion and questions between talks.
