RDM workshop

NCCR SwissMAP, joined by NCCR MARVEL, NCCR PlanetS and NCCR QSIT, is organizing workshops for PhD students and postdocs on presentation skills (one in Zurich and one in Geneva) and a workshop for young female scientists on using improvisation theatre techniques in their scientific careers. It will be taught by Elena Kaufmann - a stage preformer and lecturer who now specializes on such wokshops for scientists (see external page http://www.creativecommunicationsek.com/workshops ).

The registration is now open.

Presentation skills --- for PhD students, postdocs and young researchers
Jan 22 (Geneva) and Jan 24 (Zurich), external page http://nccr-swissmap.ch/events/presentation-skills-workshops


Improv Theatre for women scientists --- for female PhD students, postdocs and young researchers
Jan 23 (Geneva), external page http://nccr-swissmap.ch/events/improv-theatre-women-scientists

The total number of participants per workshop is limited to around 12, so it might be that not everyone can be accepted.

Because of quite some demand from ‚la Romandie‘, Anna Fontcuberta kindly agreed to repeat the QSIT Career Building Event  at EPFL.
