MOAC's 2010 annual conference was at Arnside Youth Hostel (within sight of the Lake District but across Morecambe Bay) from 19-22nd May.

The programme commenced with MSc talks on arrival and included posters presentations during the evenings. Martyn Rittman, a current post doc, (and former MOAC PhD student) talked about his life in academia, and overall the conference focussed on what the next scientific questions are and how to motivate ourselves and our colleagues.
