Congratulations to Julian on the award and we look forward to welcoming him back to PAIS.

Final year PAIS and History student, Chloe Wynne, has had her URSS research on the place of women within Formula 1 accepted for oral presentation at the prestigious next March.

The annual conference, to be held next year at Manchester Metropolitan University, is the largest of its kind in the UK, and promotes undergraduate research in all disciplines. Undergraduates of all levels are invited to submit papers, posters, workshops and performances to the Conference. Abstracts are peer-reviewed and only those accepted will be invited to attend the conference.

Chloe's research focuses upon the different gendered experiences faced by women competing and working within Formula 1. As part of her URSS project, which was supervised by Dr , Chloe wrote an article that later appeared in Autosport magazine, which explored the absence of women in prominent positions within the sport.

Professor (University of Lancaster, Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion) will deliver a keynote lecture on 'Political Spirituality' as part of the IAS workshop 'The Ethics and Politics of Apocalyptic Imaginaries'.
