Notes on social & networking events
In most cases, the social and networking rooms will not be chaired. They are intended as smaller, friendly spaces where you can chat informally around the topic. You can drop into and out of these spaces as you wish. We hope they will allow space for the kinds of conversation you can strike up during breaks at an in-person conference.
Conversation topics may be added/changed nearer the time – feel free to request some.
The Early Career Researcher hangout is intended as an informal space for postgraduate students to meet each other – you are, of course, welcome in all other chat rooms too.
