Lunch (Foyer, Building 44, Shackleton)
---
We do hope as many staff and postgraduates as possible will attend. Please note that the talks and mid-morning refreshments will be in Room 1085 in Building 2 (Management/Arts II building), rather than the Shackleton building. There will be a sandwich lunch for the GEM students, supervisors and visitors in the foyer of Building 44 (Shackleton) after the meeting. All are welcome to join us.
