Date: August the 30th from 12.00 to 16.30

Location: Aalborg University, Faculty of Medicine, Selma Lagerlöfs vej 249, 9260 Klarup. Room 12.01.004

This year’s PhD day will focus on how we can communicate our research in a short manner that ensure its impact and understanding by non-scientific peers. Inspired by the pitch we are often giving at conferences (e.g., prior to poster presentation) and the Danish PhD cup (see link and related videos below).

Considering the feedback received last year, the Doctoral School has organized oral pitch sessions where you as PhD student will have 3 minutes – no more! to present your PhD project. 

No slides will be allowed but you may bring one prop for your pitch -  In short tell the story of your PhD thesis in an engaging and creative way

1 ECTS if given for active participation (pitching)
