NPCEC: Postgraduate Innovation in Research and Professional Development Glenn A Hurst

Rationale Lack of opportunities for students to do oral presentations at conferences. Lack of opportunities for students to organise large national conferences. Few opportunities for postgraduates to have stimulating and enthusiastic scientific discussion in typical academic events. Financial constraints hindering conference attendance. Enormous potential for skills to be developed by organisers, presenters and audience
