Students from the Graphene NOWNANO Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) based in Manchester and Lancaster have come together for their annual CDT summer conference. The summer event took place over 4 days at the beautiful De Vere Cranage Estate in Cheshire.

A number of guest speakers were invited from across academia and industry, providing opportunities for students to meet peers, network, and discuss cutting-edge research.

The packed programme of events included student talks, guest speakers, poster sessions, workshops, and a question-and-answer panel with some of our alumni. Social events included a pub quiz, a board games tournament and a BBQ night.


Prizes were awarded for the best presentation and best poster. Congratulations to our winners!

Best Presentation went to Daria Dumitriu for her talk
"Effect of Electron-Electron Interactions on Thermoelectric Transport Coefficients"

Best poster went to Varun Shah for his poster
"An Emergent Quantum-Well Pair-Potential in SrTiO3"

Thanks have been extended to everyone involved - particularly the committee, who worked extremely hard to make the event a success.
