In our Summer Symposium 2025, our first-year Early Career Researchers (Cohort 2025) will present their topics and progress in very short talks (max 15 mins), and PIs, faculty, as well as invited visiting fellows and guests will comment. The purpose of the symposium is to bring everyone together and give all researchers a chance to get to know each other's projects.
The Symposium will take place on-site, registration is not necessary. Everyone is invited to join the presentations, finger food and drinks are provided, and you are welcome to stay on for an evening Get-Together.
