Dear everyone,
Please save the date for the 32nd Spring Symposium of the LUOVA Doctoral Programme, which will be held March 6th – 8th 2023.
With its roots in 1990, and officially named in 1992, the Spring Symposium is a University of Helsinki tradition; a high-profile seminar for PhD and Master’s students to present their work, with peers and external evaluators giving valuable feedback on both the scientific content and presentational skills of the speaker.
This will be a hybrid event, with in-person talks being streamed online for those otherwise unable to attend. We’d like to invite all doctoral students in life sciences to give a talk at the symposium, and master’s students to present their project as a poster. Three international keynote speakers (TBA) will also be helping to provide feedback on student presentations and will be our judges for Olli’s prize (best talk) and best poster awards. We also invite interested undergraduates to attend the presentations, or even present a poster of their own.
Registration for talks and posters will open in January.
The Grande Finale event (Wed. 8th of March) will be held physically this year, with a dinner, award ceremony, and the post-symposium party at the LUOMUS Natural History Museum.
