Thanks to all who participated in\u00a0our annual Psychology PhD Conference on 27 September.<\/p>\n
Each year, the School awards prizes to the best oral and poster presentations.<\/p>\n
Best talk\u00a0prize (for 3rd year research students)<\/strong><\/p>\n This year the runaway winner for the oral presentation was\u00a0Heather Rolfe<\/strong>. Her research on the novel topic of\u00a0moral aspects of music preferences showed a clear, logical progression between studies and was presented with great verve and enthusiasm.<\/p>\n Special mentions<\/strong> go to the runners-up in both staff and popular ratings,\u00a0Courtney Allen<\/strong> and Emma Garcia<\/strong>. Their talks were clear and engaging, and both did a great job of communicating their programmatic work on topics of applied interest.<\/p>\n Best poster prizes (for 2nd year research students)<\/strong><\/p>\n For the posters, Fadi Ifram<\/strong> and Hannah Tummon<\/strong> walked away with joint first prize.\u00a0 Fadi’s was a very professional, attractive,\u00a0and uncluttered presentation of novel work on the effects of exercise on long-term memory. Hannah’s poster was quite different in that it conveyed a lot of detail about a multi-study programme of work on face matching, which simulates airports in VR.<\/p>\n Well done to all presenters in both formats,\u00a0for showcasing your work and making it an intellectually rich and stimulating day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Thanks to all who participated in\u00a0our annual Psychology PhD Conference on 27 September.
