It’s taken a few years for it happen, but PubhD London starts next week with their first event on 27 October 2016.
At each PubhD event, three researchers, from any subject area, explain their work to an audience in a pub in exchange for a drink or two. The talks are at a “pub level” – the idea is that you don’t have to be an academic to understand the talks.
Robyn Waite and friends launch PubhD London with the following speakers:
- Cerys Bradley, a PhD student at UCL studying Crime and Security Science, who’ll be exploring what privacy is and how we preserve it.
- Jessica Simpson, a PhD student studying sociology at City University. Her research explores student sex workers.
- Sahra Rae Taylor, a PhD student at City University in International Politics. Her research explores ‘Cosmopolitanism’ and how this is linked to education.
The event is at Topolski, Waterloo.
