Dear all,
You are cordially invited to attend the Student Day of BPS, which will be held on Thursday, June 11, 2026, in rooms Vertigo 6.06 and 5.07.
The presentations are open to anyone interested. Each presentation will last a maximum of 10 minutes, and 5 minutes for questions.
There will also be a poster contest. All students and employees can vote on the best poster throughout the entire day, and the results will be announced during the drinks in the afternoon at 15.30.
From 16:30 we will go down to the lab to celebrate the end of the year with the BPS Unit, Mollier provides pizza and drinks, and the INside Information magazine edition of this year will be revealed!
The schedule is as follows:
