"Doctoral Research in Progress"
Research in progress is a good guide to subjects which may be of wider interest, now or in the near future. A selection of largely urban PhD topics being researched at several universities points the way and provides the candidates with a platform to share their findings with a knowledgeable audience beyond academia. The speakers will briefly summarise their work, leaving ample time for discussion.
