Current Research - 3 Students tell us about their Research

It is a tradition with WEGA that, each year, a few research students come along and tell us about their research projects.

This is good for us - it lets know about the directions of current research - and it is good for them - they get experience of presenting their results. And we are probably the least blood-thirsty audience they will ever experience!

This year our Departmental Representative - Dr. Jon Blundy - will, I am sure, find us three researchers.

They are:- awaited with interest!!
