Date: 6th October 2022
Time: 16:00-18:00
Location: Seminar room 2402 and 2nd floor foyer of Biocentre 3, Viikinkaari 1
Doctoral researchers and post-docs from ViPS research groups will present their projects to students from the Master's Programmes in Integrative Plant Sciences, Agricultural Sciences & Forest Sciences. The aim is to gain an understanding of the plant biology research being carried out at the University of Helsinki and to explore the possibility of joining a research group for a short period of practical training.
Presentations will be in the form of laptop slides or paper posters.
Refreshments served.
