“Maybe you have to be a little crazy to do it”: Helene Hoffman on spending 14 months in Antarctica

The Wolfson Research Event is an 'intellectual box of chocolates' taking place every Spring since 2011. The dates of the 2021 WRE will be 28-30 April
Wolfson Research Event 2021
Dates: 28-30 April, 2021
The Wolfson Research event is an interdisciplinary conference, where students of Wolfson College present their research.
The Event celebrates the knowledge developed at Wolfson College and its researchers – junior and experienced – who come together to exchange ideas and experiences for a day. WRE invites Wolfson students to present their research and receive constructive feedback from the Wolfson academic community and from guests coming from other departments at the University of Cambridge.
If COVID-19 guidelines allow it, this year the event will take place in a hybrid format: presentations will take place at the venue, but the audience will join online.
The event is open to everyone. The registration for the event will open closer to the date.
Any questions on submissions should be directed to the organisers' committee.
