Leda Channer, Student Committee Member for the symposium, said: “As a first year PhD candidate, I became involved with the First Annual IHSSR Research Student Symposium because I wanted the valuable experience of both presenting at and being involved in the organising of a conference.
“I am also very interested to find out what other candidates from different disciplines are researching and how it’s going for them. I see the Annual IHSSR Research Student Symposium as an excellent opportunity to practice presenting and try out ideas in a safe space as well as a chance to find out first-hand about the diverse range of postgraduate research happening in the IHSSR.”
