The LRI PhD programme starts with a three-day induction course, to give students a head start in getting to know each other, the LRI and its staff. Interactive sessions cover various topics including keeping on top of the literature, organising your lab work and lab book, getting the most out of journal clubs, and experiment design. Other key points in the student programme include the 10 minute talks that students give at the end of their first term, and the research seminars and reports that students complete in their second year as part of the process of upgrading their registration from MPhil to PhD.
