Welcome to the LINXS Soft Matter Symposium Day for Young Researchers!
At the symposium, early-career scientists in Soft Matter can connect, share ideas, and attend engaging scientific presentations. Don't forget to bring your poster for a chance to win in the poster-prize contest! There will also be 1-minute flash-presentations during the day where you get to present your poster.
When: Friday 6 October 2023, 09:00 - 16:30 CET
Registration information: If you register after 5 October we cannot guarantee lunch. The event is free of charge, but no-shows will be charged a fee of 200 SEK.
Where: at LINXS (Scheelevägen 19, Lund), Workshop room on the 5th floor.
Who can benefit: PhD-students, post-doctoral fellows and other early career scientists who use, or are interested in using, X-rays and neutrons in their research. The event is physical at LINXS so early-career researchers have the chance to meet and network.
