Simon wins first prize for ‘best student poster’ at the second GWR Research Symposium

Jim and Simon attended the second Great Western Research Symposium 2020 Vision. I can see clearly now? held at Hewlett Packard in Bristol on 20th January. The symposium explored the contribution of the GWR research portfolio to life in 2020. Jim was invited present a plenary paper, entitled “2020 Vision. A green and pleasant land?”

The symposium was well attended by students funded by GWR, many of whom contributed a poster on their research. Congratulations to Simon, whose poster entitled “Opportunities, barriers and challenges for co-managed air pollution and carbon emissions in South West England” was judged the best in the symposium. Simon’s poster will be available soon on the GWR website. If you can’t wait until then, you can always find the poster and other outputs from his research on his research web page at http://www.uwe.ac.uk/aqm/simon.html. Go check it out!
