Annual conference reports

The ICR Annual Conference is held every spring and we publish reports on conference sessions in CRfocus. This year, we plan to publish some reports 'online only' to help bring this website to the attention of more ICR members.

 

If you think you might be interested in contributing to your fellow professionals in this way, please do take a look at these guidelines, and contact me (andrew.smith@crfocus.org) to find out whether the session(s) you'd like to cover have already been allocated.
