Can you explain your PhD in the pub?

PubhD is monthly event that started up in Nottingham on January 22, 2014.

At each event, three PhD* students, from any academic discipline, explain their work to an audience in a pub in exchange for a pint or two.

PubhD has a very simple format and the idea is now spreading around the country.

If you are interested in becoming a speaker at a PubhD event, please get in touch.

*EngD and EdD students, and post-docs, also welcome!
