Geo.X PhD Day 2025

23rd May 2025 at DLR

Join us for the Geo.X PhD Day 2025

Are you a PhD student working on a geoscience-related topic and looking to sharpen your science communication skills? Join us for this year's Geo.X PhD Day, bringing together early career researchers from the Berlin-Brandenburg area and beyond! This event is part of the Europlanet Early Career Annual Week, organized by our colleagues from the German Aerospace Center (DLR).

You decide how you want to present your work. You can either contribute with a poster or a science slam presentation.

To prepare for the PhD Day, we offer a two-day training workshop on how to do a science slam. The training lasts four hours per day, is free of charge and is conducted by a professional trainer. The registration for the science slam training workshop is open until 7th April. You will receive additional information about the workshop once you have registered.

The registration in now closed.
