\nThe PhiGS Colloquium aims to promote discussion among graduate researchers working in the same general areas as us at Kent\, where we have a wide range of topics of inquiry. Such diversity promotes the advancement of inquiry through cross-pollination between fields\, and the Colloquium seeks to facilitate such fruitful encounters.
\nThe Colloquium will be a hybrid event &ndash\; with all talks available in-person and online &ndash\; to optimise flexibility for all participants. The Colloquium is free for all participants\, speakers and other attendees alike. We intend to provide light refreshments and lunch for all in-person speakers and attendees\, as well as a wine reception at the end of the second day.
\nRegistration is now open. If you wish to attend\, please contact Mark Garron on \;mg734@kent.ac.uk \;stating whether you wish to participate in-person or online and\, if in-person\, whether you wish to join the conference dinner after at the end of the first day (extra cost\, about £\;20). There are limited spaces for in-person attendance\, while there is more space online. The deadlines for registration are 31 May 2024.
\nThe organiser would like to thank everyone who helped make this event possible.
