Events

Accolade Online

We’ve been meeting the challenge of online programming this term and seen some fantastic roundtable discussions, workshops and webinars. We thank all of those who have been involved in these events so far and shared their knowledge and expertise with us and the postdoc community at Warwick.

In June, our focus is turning towards digital tools and technology for research.  

On the 11th of June, Senior Academic Technologist Steve Ranford will be running a webinar exploring the factors to consider when selecting software and digital tools for work with research data.  

On the 18th of June, WIRL COFUND Fellow, Rémi Dewiere, will be hosting a workshop on Inkscape and its uses in the humanities to visualise research. This two-part session will include a step by step guide on how to produce maps.
