The Psych Research Bites Series is initiated by the Psychology Research Committee and aims to celebrate our Department’s vibrant, innovative, and collaborate research culture. The series will provide a platform for academics and HDRs to give bite-sized (15-minute) presentations on their research activities in a supportive environment.

Feel free to contact Psych Research Bites Coordinator Dr Dan Miller on daniel.miller1@jcu.edu.au if you are interested in doing a quick presentation on your research or research related activities.
