Meet the Professor

A number of Meet the Professor sessions will be held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 13.00-14.00.

Numbers will be limited to encourage maximum audience participation and presenters have been asked to use an informal, interactive approach, rather than a didactic teaching style.
