Twitter commentary during and afer the conference

This project would not have been possible without the involvement of many individuals and organisations, and we feel it is important to give full recognition to all who played their part. (We apologise in advance if anybody is missing, please do contact us to let us know if there is someone we have missed.) We want to once again thank the Leverhulme Trust for funding the project, without which nothing would have been possible.
