What is the PHENIICS Fest about?
The PHENIICS Fest is just an opportunity for PhD students of the PHENIICS doctoral school to gather, share their work and meet other students!
During those two days, a lot will happen:
- Students interested in sharing their work can either make a talk or a poster (see below).
- We will have a talk contest, so don't hesitate to make one in order to win one of our 3 tempting prizes! This will be money given on your name to your lab -if you fancy a nice summer school... A jury will be constituted for the occasion.
- A social dinner is currently being organized for the end of our gathering: you will be asked to indicate if you plan on coming at your registration.
-
We will have 2 guest speakers! The climate scientist Valérie Masson-Delmotte, IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) co-chair, will come to tell us about climate change problematics. Georg Schnabel, statistics genius, will give a talk on history of A.I., Bayesian statistics and its applications. Don't miss their talk!
- And more...
Participation
All students have the opportunity to contribute to the PHENIICS Fest:
- You're just starting your PhD? You are then invited to make a poster about your work: present the scientific context and what you plan to do for the next years.
- If you're a 2nd year, we propose that you make a 20-minute talk, just like in a conference.
- For the senior PhD students in their 3rd year, we know you are busy writing your thesis, so how about being the chairman of a session, make a poster or give a short oral introduction at the beginning of a session (eg. about 10 mins with some basics of particle physics or nuclear physics so that the speakers do not have to repeat everytime)?
This is our preferred organisation but of course, if you absolutely want to give a speech instead of a poster or the other way around, tell us!
Reminder : the role of a chairman is to introduce each talk of the session, to check that the speaker does not exceed the 20 minutes and to lead the question time.
Please take into account the fact that we all work in different domains (nuclear, medical physics, accelators...). Your talk/poster must be as pedagogical as possible!
