ℹ️ MGC Science Day
At the MGC Science Day, you will have the unique opportunity to present your projects (in all stages of your thesis) as oral presentations or posters in a conference-like, still familiar atmosphere. This gives you the chance to exchange your knowledge and connect with doctoral candidates in your direct environment. You will also get the chance to listen to interesting keynote speakers and to do some networking, having finger food and drinks during the breaks or at a relaxed networking event in the evening. The science day will take place in the Auditorium area of the MRI.
