- Oral presentations

- Social activities
- Dinners and networking
The tentative programme can be found here (still under development and subject to change).
More information to come soon. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact NRSN if you have any questions about the event.
Who can participate?
The conference is open to all members of NRSN and NORA.ai Research School.
We encourage students to attend from the very start of their research project to the last year of their PhD, as this gives them the chance to develop their professional network and improve their presentation skills over time, and to receive feedback on their projects at different stages.
