Each year the History of Architecture and Built Environment (HABE) research group in ESALA welcomes guest speakers and colleagues to present an evening seminar on their research. The events are a fantastic opportunity to hear about the latest research in the fields from researchers working in the UK, Europe and beyond. These events are free and open to all.
This academic year, the AH&T Seminar Series will run as live virtual events. Links to the relevant event registration pages for Semester One events are available below. More information on Semester Two events will follow soon.
Please contact Dr Alistair Fair and Prof. Alex Bremner if you have any questions or access requirements: Alistair.Fair@ed.ac.uk and Alex.Bremner@ed.ac.uk.
