This year’s Celebrating Research Scholarships and Expeditions event will take place on Wednesday 27th November 2024. 

There was significant interest in both schemes, with participation from students across all three faculties. Research projects were wide-ranging and included topics such as witchcraft and domestic treason; the role of algae in the Lake District aquatic ecosystems; air pollution and brain health and the prevention of pressure ulcers in susceptible patients. Three expeditions also saw a number of students travel to Bhutan, Greenland and Canada.  

Starting at 3:30pm, a poster display in the Lindisfarne Room, Hadrian Building, will showcase student research and expedition achievements, offering an opportunity to speak to the students involved.   

At 5:00pm in the Alec Campbell Lecture Theatre, BEDB.G.04.LT1 (Entrance 3) selected students will present their research and expeditions discussing their aims, methodologies and findings.   Further details about the selected presenters will be available closer to the event.
