Scientific research involves ambition, perseverance, and uncertainty. But what if years of research don't lead to the expected outcome? What if a project stalls or funding is lost? How do you cope with this professionally and personally? This Science Day will focus on the theme of "dealing with disappointment." Speakers from various perspectives, science, policy, and HR, will share their experiences and insights. Young researchers will also have the opportunity to present their work. What can you expect? 

  • Inspiring speakers from research, policy, and HR;
  • Reflections on failed hypotheses and global challenges;
  • Practical tools for workplace resilience;
  • Abstract presentations by young researchers.
