Friday Light Talk | April 25, 5 pm

 

Friday Light Talks is an initiative for Postdocs, PhD and master students to promote networking, discussion and ideas exchange in an informal environment.
Friday Light Talks started as a lecture series and networking platform for young researchers with a focus on physics. It is now open also for young researchers from other disciplines of Natural Sciences at FU Berlin.

Each event comprises a 20-30 min scientific presentation by a PhD or Postdoc followed by a discussion and a relaxed get-together with drinks. We are excited to have a space where all the research groups can get to know each other, and we are looking forward to meeting you all!

The first Friday Light Talk in the summer semester will be
