The ASPA School PA Research SIG wants to celebrate the exciting research being conducted by honours, Masters, Grad Cert and PhD Students.  

Therefore, we invite students to present their research in an exciting three-minute lightning presentation format. 

The lightning presentation will include one slide, and 180 seconds for the student to deliver an accessible and interesting presentation for an audience of non-specialists.  

Awards will be presented to the best presentation and the viewer’s choice.
