Wolfson Research Exchange Newsletter Welcome to the first edition of the Research Exchange newsletter. We will be keeping you up‐to‐date with all the interesting, upcoming events.

Events: Since its opening at the start of the academic year, the Research Exchange has been well received by researchers from a wide range of disciplines. From departmental research meetings to large conferences hosting up to ninety people, the events have been as interesting as they have been varied. As the space caters exclusively for the members of research community, we can offer research specific support, work spaces and specialist equipment. Tuesday the 5th of May sees the Graduate School PhD poster competition being held in the Research Exchange with over 80 PhD students taking part

Action shot of…………

The concept behind the Research Exchange is to develop a research community that can share their research experiences. It is also intended as a place where cross‐disciplinary collaboration can foster. If you are a research student or a member of research staff and would like to know more about the Research Exchange, please come and find us on the Library third floor extension. One of our Research Exchange Advisers will be happy to show you around the space and introduce you to the technology and equipment that is available. Alternatively, you could find out more about us on our website at go.warwick.ac.uk/researchexchange.
