Two parallel guided poster sessions are planned for day 1 allowing 6 minutes for each poster presentation. We have 28 poster presentations, and 11 PhD and 11 PI volunteering as Jury. Thank you.
@ Presenters
We would like to emphasise and support you in designing your poster and presenting your research in such a way that the audience from all PhaNuSpo disciplines can follow and understand your research, be motivated to give feedback, to ask questions and interact with you. Presentations should include your motivation, the research question/hypothesis and methods used, your initial results, and, preferably, implications for society. Further details will be provided by the jury.
We would like to emphasise that the retreat is a safe place to test your communication skills in front of a wider audience.
Poster design: Download the A0 poster template for the Doc School corporate design on the PhaNuSpo Intranet. The logo, the headline and the information at the bottom are part of the corporate design and should not be changed. There is however sufficient space in between, this is your design area to illustrate your research project, to add your own drawings, use new graphic tools, etc.
We would like to encourage presenters to discuss their posters with each other in advance. You can learn from each other, test whether other people understand the essence of your research and collect and share ideas for intriguing poster presentations.
@ Jury members
The idea is that the jury will be made up of volunteer PhD students who are not presenting. This group should equally represent the three Pha-Nu-Spo disciplines and will prepare the indicators for evaluation before the retreat. The experienced PI volunteers will help the PhD students to define the criteria and guide them through the evaluation process.
Next step: PhD jury members meet (online) and agree whether only the PhD jury will evaluate the posters and the PIs will assist them, or if it should be a mix of PhDs & PIs.
Isolde is a fan of the first one.
Well in advance of the retreat, a spokesperson for the jury will communicate the evaluation indicators, including details for the presentations themselves (e.g. time/poster) and whether a poster abstract should be submitted prior to the retreat.
