The Polar Humanities and Social Sciences Early Career Researcher Workshop (PHaSS) is an adaptive space for early career researchers working on polar-related topics. The Workshop has three major functions: provide research support for graduate and early career group members; act as a forum for roundtable discussions centred on readings, current events, or works-in-progress; and facilitate dialogue between scholars who are visiting SPRI and group members. The workshop meets during term time.

Convenors: Emilie Canova and Liz Walsh. To contact the convenors or join the mailing list contact ejpc3@cam.ac.uk
