Gerry Hedley Student Symposium

30th Anniversary Gerry Hedley Student Symposium
"Continuing the Legacy: Current topics furthering Gerry Hedley's
    research"
Tate Britain
11-13 June 2012

Presented by Northumbria University with kind support from Tate

The next Gerry Hedley Student Symposium is the 30th Anniversary!

To celebrate this achievement and in recognition of the appreciable
contribution more than 400 students from the Hamilton Kerr
Institute, the Courtauld Institute, and Northumbria University
programmes have made, it is intended to hold a three day event at
Tate Britain, 11-13 June 2012.

The overall working theme reflects current topics in conservation
which relate to research developed and pioneered by Gerry Hedley.
The traditional day for current student's work will be followed by a
second day drawing on former student's research and practical
activity since graduation. The content for the third day will be
developed over the coming months but will include topics and papers
suggested by experienced professionals.

Contributions may relate to subjects chosen by current students. As
a prompt for related submissions, titles for current student
projects will be published with the call for papers. Former students
now working in different fields are welcome to participate with
relevant topics. There are many possibilities. Updating areas of
research that Gerry Hedley developed would be especially
appropriate. It is hoped that the call for contribution and
participation will be spread by word-of-mouth.

We invite all former students to submit short resume of their
student projects and past and current career details to be published
on a forthcoming website for the symposium to
az.ghsymposium2012<-a t->northumbria< . >ac< . >uk. It is hoped that this will
encourage engagement between former students in celebration of the
30th anniversary.

A call for papers is forthcoming.
