LEAF Day 2025

We're excited to announce that we will be hosting a miniature conference on campus for those working with trees and forests on January 20th 2025!

The day will include a series of talks, highlighting the research being undertaken across the university and by select external partners. There will also be posters, opportunities to network (free lunch and refreshments!), and an afternoon session dedicated to improving the impact of your research through public engagement.

Our goal is to strengthen the links and potential for collaborations across schools and faculties by increasing awareness of relevant research being undertaken by other teams at the university.

Please save the date in your calendars and complete this sign-up form below to register your interest.
