This inaugural seminar series is designed to introduce members of the Environment Institute to each other and to showcase the excellent science being undertaken across the new Institute. Postgraduate students will be encouraged to present their projects.

Visiting international collaborators and experts from other institutions will also be invited to present during their visit in order to generate new ideas and collaborations for the Institute. Seminars will be held weekly on Mondays 12.00-1.00pm in the Benham Lecture Theatre.
