Knowledge lab seminar series

The UCL Knowledge Lab monthly seminar series provides a showcase and platform for debate across the six broad strands of our work.


Aims

The seminars promote discussions around our core research interests and speakers are chosen to resonate with potential and current collaborators beyond the Lab.

The series are organised around the UCL Knowledge Lab’s broad research areas, including:

  • digital ethics, inclusion and diversity
  • digital learning technologies
  • digital communication and collaboration
  • discourse, technology and the body
  • digital making, media and play.

Modes of attendance

Unless otherwise stated seminars will be hybrid events. The speaker will likely present at UCL Knowledge Lab, 23-29 Emerald Street, WC1N 3QS and there will be a limited number of spaces for audience (in line with current UCL guidelines). The seminar will also be streamed live on MS Teams.

The seminars are free to attend and all are welcome – for booking instructions for non-UCL attendees, please view the individual event pages below.
