The Department of Psychiatry is planning to hold a “PIs’ Day” to complement the Postgraduates’ and PhD students’ days of presentation and discussion, with which you will be familiar and which have been enormously useful in drawing together and informing members of the department.
The event will be held on Thursday 1st February 2018 at the Riley Auditorium, The Gillespie Centre, Clare College, and it will entail an array of presentations from PIs within the department, with all other members of the department being invited to attend.
If you would like to attend, please advise Tara Hayden th437@medschl.cam.ac.uk before the 25th January 2018.
