Doctoral Researchers and members of the Graduate School Community have been invited to submit ‘stops’ for the route which mark a destination that relates to their research. These have been formulated into a route which will be walked by marathon participants on Friday 9 June. At each ‘stop’ the Researcher will then speak about that place, and how it relates to their research project for 5 minutes or so.\u00a0<\/p>

The marathon is not only a great way to hear about the research being done by members of the Graduate School Community but is also a great social event and we’d encourage as many of you to join us on the day as possible.<\/p>

Once we’ve completed the route, the intention is to end up back at Regent\u2019s Street for the Festival Celebration event on Friday afternoon.<\/p>

We will convene at Fyvie Hall at 11am<\/strong> to begin the Marathon.\u00a0Please do make sure to wear suitable footwear and remember to bring a packed lunch!\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
