The Winter 2016 issue of GRADnews has been sent off for printing. It will be distributed to all PGRs and staff across the SEPnet members over the next two weeks. Watch out for it in your mailslots or in your PGR student common rooms/areas. If there's one in your mailslot, then it's for you!

This issue concentrates on Public Engagement and Outreach: see how your research can be improved and how it can be made relevant by engaging with the public. You'll read about the Photonics Garden displayed at the Tatton Park show last summer, the Physics and Faith colloquium run by St Mary's Twickenham, the SEPnet Public Engagement awards and the winning projects and people, and the Astroquizzical Blog run by Dr Jillian Scudder at Sussex.
