Researchers’ Tuesday
Researchers’ Tuesday is a yearly scientific poster contest organised, in turn, by Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France (France) and the University of Mons (Belgium).
The event also hosts the Show Your PhD contest, a competition in which you can combine your research subject with your artistic passion ! (More information below).
This year’s edition will be held in Mons (Belgium) on the 17th of March. This is a scientific event during which participants (that’s you!) present part of their work through posters.
Its aim is to provide a unique forum for discussion, enabling participants to discover the research being carried out by their colleagues and to initiate collaborations between individuals, departments and/or institutions. Prizes are also awarded for the best posters!
Researchers’ Tuesday is also open to all members of EUNICE partner institutions.
Poster Registration
PhD students and researchers from EUNICE institutions who wish to participate are invited to submit an abstract (max. 100 words) before the 24th of February via this form.
They should also send a pdf version of their poster to alliance.eunice@umons.ac.be before the 10th of March.
Participants can include a QR code to an audio or video file on their poster to accompany their contribution (between 30 seconds and 5 minutes). Attendance is not mandatory for EUNICE participants, but welcome.
The posters will be printed by the University of Mons and displayed at the venue. The space available for each poster is an A0 format (84,1 cm x 118,9 cm) in portrait.
