CLCR Research Events 2024-5

These were the events that took place in Spring 2025 and, before that, in Autumn 2024. The seminar series was an eclectic and exciting mix of topics broadly related to language, linguistics and communication. Events also took a wide range of formats which would appeal to constituents from across the University and beyond.
