Final year PAIS and History student, Chloe Wynne, has had her URSS research on the place of women within Formula 1 accepted for oral presentation at the prestigious next March.

The annual conference, to be held next year at Manchester Metropolitan University, is the largest of its kind in the UK, and promotes undergraduate research in all disciplines. Undergraduates of all levels are invited to submit papers, posters, workshops and performances to the Conference. Abstracts are peer-reviewed and only those accepted will be invited to attend the conference.
