About this event

  • 2 days 9 hours

Co-hosted by Queen’s University Belfast and Ulster University, this student-led conference welcomes early career Quaternary researchers to present their undergraduate, master’s or PhD research in a relaxed and supportive environment.

The conference will last 1.5 days (Thursday afternoon and all day Friday) and includes postgraduate talks, a poster session, two keynote speakers, and a guided tour of the 14Chrono Centre (the radiocarbon dating facility at Queen’s University Belfast).


In addition, we are planning to run two optional activities:
