Social Psychology Seminar
Our student Elisa Militaru started the Social Psychology Seminar Series (SPSS) in 2018. The seminar attracts national and international speakers in the areas of social and developmental psychology to present research talks on their specialist topics. Additionally, graduate students, among others from the Personality & Social Dynamics Research Group, the Cambridge Body, Mind and Behaviour Laboratory, the Cambridge Social Decision-Making Laboratory and the Judge Business School present their research. The seminar is open to all members of the university. Please contact Elisa with any questions you might have or if you wish to present your work at the seminar.
