Continuing the need for online events due to coronavirus (COVID-19), our Spring 2021 Web Series ran as an online replacement for our Spring Network Conference.
Beginning on 28th January and finishing on 25th March 2021, we hosted an ongoing programme of weekly virtual lectures (followed by a Q&A and discussion). All events were free to attend and you didn’t need to be a member to access them.
Please see the new Summer 2021 Series page for details of our programme as it continues.
