#sics2024 lots of learning from a huge variety of posters on display this year. A few more from #teamGRIICU below 😉
Love that we have moved on from printing out posters!
Thanks @sicsmembers for a cracking informative few days!
Productive few days at #sics2024. Big thank you to all the organisers, committee, and poster judges. Best conference yet in my opinion. And very well done to @SamGurling (BSc student 2023).
