What is ...?

A regular series of lunch-time talks provide short, accessible introductory guides to key research methods. These talks are ideal for research students — or their supervisors — who want to find out what the method does and whether it might be useful in their research.

 

These events focus on particular methods or resources and provide an opportunity for discussion and exchange. Suggestions for workshops are welcome.
