Reflections on the real world

9:00 - 10:00pm

Chair: Geoff Payne, University of Plymouth

What do we do when the real world of research makes it impossible to follow ‘correct’ procedures? Do current methods allow for the complexity found in real world settings? These two presentations and the subsequent discussion will reflect on these questions and consider some answers.
