Geary Seminars

The current line-up for our seminar series is below. This is a provisional list. I would encourage everyone to engage fully with this series and we hope to continue the strong culture that our seminar programme has fostered over the last number of years. As you can see, there will also be a number of full and half-day events devoted to specific topics. Please sign up to the Geary Institute mailing list if you want to receive updates:
