UCL Department of Statistical Science PhD Poster Session Event, 12 March 2025 – 3rd Edition

It was open to all research students across the UK to take part. There were student participants and visitors from numerous universities.

This was initially kicked off with a short lecture by the guest speaker and poster judge, Professor Sir John Aston of the University of Cambridge. His lecture was on Statistics, Science and Government: A Statistician as a CSA.

He was very impressed with all the posters. There could only be three winners.
