UWA 2014 Research Tasting Night – An Intellectual Tapas
What do we love about tapas? Perhaps it’s the small tastings that get our appetites working, usually in a convivial setting that encourages discussion, and this is just what our UWA research tasting night was all about.
In this special event, guests were served small talks from some of UWA’s most exciting researchers across a wide variety of disciplines. You can view the 2013 Research Tasting Night event here.
