Presentations

Here you can download PDF copies of presentations made by members of the Blaxter Group. Please note that we would rather that you didn't
* use any of the images we have generated without asking us first
* be aware that these are unrefereed research presentations, and thus may contain errors and 'partial truths'
and that you did
* reference the original papers where relevant
* give due credit to the work of others that we use in introducing or summarising our work (we stand on the shoulders of many!)
