Description

In this episode, Charlie is joined by our long-time friend of the show Laura, plus two new guests, Isla and Josh, as we talk about what it is like to attend your first large conference. Laura and Charlie have attended lots of large conferences together, but Josh and Isla were attending their first ever events as PhD researchers. We talked about 1) why you might want to attend large conferences; 2) how you can get involved in presenting and funding a large-conference trip; 3) things that can make us nervous about large conferences and 4) what our top pieces of advice would be to help maximise your experiences.
