This is always such a fun event! We get to meet the starting PhDs, hear about their research, and learn from researchers who are further along in the process.

You can check out the #DigitalHumanities tools some of our researchers are using in the recap blog post linked below!
Every academic year, the Artes Research team kicks off our #digitalscholarship module for first-year PhDs with a special "How do you do it" session where researchers share their research workflows.
