BCRA Science Symposium, Saturday 12 October 2024
The 2024 BCRA Cave & Karst Science Symposium and AGM will take place on Sat 12 Oct,
09:30 to 17:00 at Northumbria University, hosted by Mike Rogerson.
This will be a live event but, hopefully, we will also be able to stream it via Zoom. For
this annual event, information (including a timetable, abstracts, and directions to the venue) is
usually published a few weeks beforehand on the BCRA News
forum. Last-minute info will be posted to our
Facebook page. To
log in via Zoom, please see below.
Our Annual General Meeting will also take place on Saturday 12 October 2024
immediately prior to the lunch break. See our AGM page for further
information.
The day after the annual symposium, we usually organise a field meeting in the local area
or a workshop/classroom event. Information will be posted to our Meetings
listing page. Information is usually also posted to the BCRA
News forum. Last-minute info will be posted to our
Facebook page.

Joining via Zoom
You are advised to download and install the Zoom program in advance, from
Zoom Client for Meetings
. If you do
not do this in advance you will be prompted to do it when you join a meeting, and you could have
to spend a few minutes installing it and working out how to use it. It is also possible to attend
a Zoom meeting via a web browser, but this is not recommended unless you cannot get Zoom to
install properly.

The Zoom links, above, should be available on the day of the event. If they
are not, please check our
Facebook page for
any last-minute announcements or instructions.
You can test your Zoom connection prior to
the meetings
- If you try to join the meeting before the host enables it, you could be left "in
limbo". Therefore, if your computer has not connected by, say, five minutes before the scheduled
start time, please log out and log back in again.
- If you cannot log in at all, please check our
Facebook page where
we will post any last-minute messages concerning, for example, any technical problems that we are
having.
- Please note that this event will not be recorded. You can only watch it live, via Zoom.
The reasons for not recording the Science Symposium are that a) it can be too time-consuming and
too difficult to obtain all the necessary copyright clearances; and b) some content may be subject
to embargoes or other academic constraints. If you are interested in obtaining the content of a
particular talk you should contact the speaker privately.
