Our annual Department for Health Postgraduate Research Conference brings together researchers from across the Department’s research centres to showcase groundbreaking work in health and wellbeing.

You’ll have the opportunity to hear from staff and students, and gain insights into the cutting-edge projects happening at Bath that are shaping the future of health research.

The conference will feature a panel discussion, research presentations, poster sessions, networking opportunities, and an awards ceremony; all of which are designed to celebrate and promote interdisciplinary collaboration and highlight the outstanding research happening at Bath.

Whether you’re looking to present your work or attend as a participant, this event is a fantastic opportunity to connect with peers, exchange ideas, and engage with the university’s vibrant research community.

Take part in the conference

We're keen to invite people from around the University to either give a presentation or display a poster about their work at the conference.

Your research can cover any aspect of health, wellbeing, sport, or physical activity and can be rooted in a wide range of disciplines, inducing (but not limited to) social practices, biological sciences, clinical research, education, policy, psychology, physiology, or practice-based inquiry.
