IAS Conversations

Scheme Objectives

IAS Conversations support Warwick staff and IAS Fellows in hosting small, informal gatherings that encourage the development of new interdisciplinary research ideas. These sessions provide a collaborative environment to think speculatively, explore emerging areas of interest, and build connections across disciplines and institutions.

Designed as a catalyst for future academic initiatives, IAS Conversations often serve as a springboard for research networks, collaborative projects, and external funding applications. They align closely with the IAS's mission to promote pioneering research and collaboration within and beyond Warwick.

Submissions for IAS Conversations are accepted on an open call basis and will be reviewed at the end of each month.
