NIOZ and Utrecht University (UU) have been collaborating for over 25 years and since 2015 the collaboration on research and teaching in the fields of water and climate has intensified. The aim of this symposium is to enhance this collaboration, so that scientists and research groups on both sides can make more use of each other’s knowledge and facilities.

The symposium will begin with a fun night including dinner and drinks at BUNK to break the ice. The following day will include talks from UU and NIOZ departments, as well as from Post-Docs. After lunch, we will run a mysterious science speed dating session, right before a workshop on communication and collaboration. There will also be room for showcasing your scientific work through a poster session.

This interactive program gives you the chance to get to know each other, discuss your research and learn from each other, thereby creating chances for new collaborations between early career scientist from NIOZ and UU.

Participation and catering are free of charge. Accommodation is also free of charge for those who are coming from outside Utrecht. It will be a fun couple of days!

To participate in the symposium, please register before 12:00 on Monday the 10th of April 2022. This symposium is for all PhD students and all postdocs, either affiliated with UU or NIOZ.
For more detailed information, please see the program.

When registering, you will be asked to pick three hashtags that best represent your science, and three that you would like to know more about.

We hope to see all of you there, and we are excited to create and build our community with you!
