The CPE Soft Electronic Materials is a seminar series funded by the CPE for PhDs, PostDocs and Fellows to present their research to open up discussion and collaboration. We aim to have speakers from all groups and areas of research within the CPE.

In the new year we will be combing our seminar series with the other CPE seminar series.

If you or anyone in your group would be interested in speaking or if you have a suggestion for invited external speakers please let us know!

 

Kind Regards,

Joel, Katie and Phil
