Activities

The Centre organises regular events, including an annual series of monthly seminars.

What

The CNT normally holds monthly seminars and workshops.

Who

The seminars will be given by distinguished speakers from within UCL and from other institutions.

How organised

The workshops will be thematically organized, and will provide an opportunity for researchers within UCL working on closely related topics to exchange ideas and insights.

Refreshments

Refreshments will be provided after the seminar, giving the opportunity for discussion with the speaker.

Extra

In addition, an annual one-day March or July Workshop will be held, to which internationally-known external speakers will be invited, as well as presentations and posters from local contributors.

This Workshop will be held in suitable UCL premises, and is intended to allow maximal opportunity for development of collaborative projects.
