IZN Scientific Events IZN Student and Postdoc Talks

IZN students and postdocs present their research to the IZN community in this bi-weekly seminar series.

Present your research!

Attention all IZN doctoral students and postdocs: Whether you have just published a paper, are close to defending your thesis, or are still deep in the trenches of your experiments, the IZN community wants to hear about your research!  IZN doctoral students are required to present at least one IZN seminar. 

Contact the IZN coordinator to schedule your next IZN seminar: IZN.coordinator@uni-heidelberg.de
