The edited collection is organised around the diverse but related academic activities that took place during LiSS Conference 2, including: individual conference paper presentations, LiSS Working Group ‘showcases’, the LiSS Doctoral School and the European Research workshops. These activities have been ‘captured’ in this edition in the form of full articles and papers, reports of LiSS Working Group activities and summaries of the European research projects presented.
