As I write this introduction, we remain in lockdown and so, as you will see, we continue to deliver our full programme online. While I know that we all miss each other’s company, it has been good to see new faces – and often of our researchers based abroad – who have been able to join many of these events online. Likewise, the University has taken this opportunity to invite guests from all over the world to deliver talk3 to us at Wolverhampton: this year we have a truly international programme, connecting us up with Yale University, the University of Belgrade, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, to name only three. In these unusual times, creating these kinds of online spaces around research matters, and connecting with each other, has been very beneficial to us all. You’ll find in our Almanac the usual rich range of training sessions, skills sessions, guest speakers, Doctoral College hang-outs, faculty events and social events – covering all aspects of the postgraduate experience, from the early days and beginning your research, to creating an online presence and preparing for life beyond your studies. Do join us for as much as you can. And do keep an eye on our Twitter account for updates and news. I look forward to seeing you!
