The annual meeting at a glance:

All first year PhD students (or first time participants) are required to present their PhD research project in the form of a poster+ 1min flash talk (1 slide), or a short video if on field work.

If you are away on field work at these dates, we offer you alternative options so that you can still participate remotely:

  • Present your poster (and flash talk) online 

  • Present a 15 min talk online (if you haven't had the opportunity to present at the annual meeting yet and are more advanced in your PhD)

  • Create a short (3min) video about your field research work, or more specifically about something related to this year's topic (Science and Society), for instance how you collaborate with the local population at your field site, how you communicate about your research to the local population and authorities, what kind of struggles you face in the reality of the field.

Abstract submission (max 250 words) is mandatory if you are presenting a poster, a talk or a video. Only 5 15min-talks will be selected with a priority given to those who are in the field or not first-timers.
The poster presentation (or short video) will count for 0.5 ECTS (category Scientific tools), a 15 min presentation will count for 1 ECTS (category Scientific tools).

Please come with your slide ready (PDF format) on a USB flash drive to the registration desk, we will collect all the slides.

 

All members of the doctoral program, alumni and post-docs of the University of Neuchâtel are welcome to join this event. Registration is mandatory.
