CeMoRe Research Day (IAS)

23 May

The purpose of this day is to encourage short presentations (10-15 minutes) from staff and research students at Lancaster, to facilitate the exchange of ideas and encourage new contacts and collaborations. Papers can be on any theme related to mobilities (broadly defined) and can be used to float new ideas, present research in progress or report on results. For more information about CeMoRe see: http://www.lancs.ac.uk/fass/sociology/cemore/

In previous years we have had excellent papers from research students and staff in all Faculties of the University with very productive discussion.

If you would like to offer a paper then please contact Colin Pooley (Geography, Lancaster Environment Centre; c.pooley@lancaster.ac.uk) with a title and brief (two sentence) abstract. Offers of papers should be submitted by Monday 25th February at the latest.

Please circulate this call for papers widely in your department – we are keen to encourage papers from researchers who have not previously participated in CeMoRe events.
