PhD Retreat recurring research event

Information regarding presentations

During a retreat, you can present a poster or give an oral presentation about your project.

• Poster: During the retreat, there are 2 poster presentation sessions. Posters should be printed and brought by all PhD candidates themselves. On your poster, you can show results obtained within your project, but you are also allowed to present the study design of your project(s).
• Oral presentation: During the retreat, there are multiple oral presentation sessions focusing on various research topics, in which PhD candidates can present their research. An abstract committee will decide which PhD candidates are invited to give an oral presentation based on an assessment of all abstracts.

Notes regarding presentations:

• All PhD candidates are asked to send in an abstract for giving an oral or poster presentation. For PhD candidates who are in the first year of their PhD trajectory, giving an oral or poster presentation is optional, but highly encouraged.
• As the amount of oral presentations is limited, some PhD candidates who would prefer to give an oral presentation might be asked to present a poster instead.
• You will get notified about the type of presentation (oral or poster) you have been selected for around half of June.
