The BPPA is proud to present the 2024 edition of its Annual Conference. The Annual Conference is the BPPA’s largest and most important event, with a history running for more than 25 years. This year, the conference will take place at the University of Manchester on the 17th and 18th October 2024. As it has become customary, the Annual Conference will be organized side-by-side with our very celebrated Annual Masterclass.
The Annual Conference will count with 20 contributed talks by graduate students from all over the UK, who will present on a wide variety of topics, as this year’s conference theme was fully open. Moreover, we will also have a series of keynote lectures delivered by senior academics from different UK universities. Speakers for the keynote lectures include:
Joseph Bowen (Leeds)
Emma Tobin (UCL)
Emily Caddick Bourne (University of Manchester)
J’Annine Jobbling (University of Liverpool)

Registration is required for both presenters and attendants. Registrations will open closer to the date of the event.
