Leiden Institute of Physics
Leiden Physics Science Day
Every year at the start of the new academic year, the Leiden Institute of Physics organises its Science Day. The goal is to highlight the newest research at our institute, to socialise, and to welcome first year master students and new PhD's and Postdocs to our institute.
Great start of the new academic season
On Tuesday September 8, the Leiden Institute of Physics organizes its eleventh edition of our annual Science Day at the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden.
The goal is to highlight the newest research at LION, to socialize, and of course to welcome first year master students and new PhD /Post-doc’s to our institute.
There will be talks about research, and ample time to wander among exotic plants and discuss the challenges and joy of doing physics. There will also be a trivia competitionand coffee, lunch will be provided. We will have a 'special advice session' for Master students and first year PhD’s.
For the planning, we ask you to register by Tuesday, September 1 at the following link. All members of the Leiden Physics community are also welcome. The day will end with drinks for PhD/PD and Masterstudents.
