NCRM Residential Schools

NCRM organises a residential school every year (moved online due to pandemic restrictions in 2020/21). Each school focuses on a cutting-edge methodological topic. The Autumn Schools are aimed mainly at early-career researchers, but are also relevant to postgraduate students.
