Hey students and postdocs, we’re cooking up something exciting. Super informal (but still cool) meeting with three amazing scientists: Steffen Jung, Burkhard Becher, and Ari Waisman. It’s going to be an open chat about all sorts of science stuff, like:
- How on earth do you survive in science?
- What’s the secret sauce for PhD success?
- Will AI take over science (and the world)?
- What’s the biggest problem in science right now?
- What’s more terrifying—grant rejections or reviewer comments? (Or is it like choosing between a shark and a bear?)
- What’s the weirdest experiment you’ve ever done that actually worked? (Be honest, was it an accident?)
- What’s the one mistake you see young scientists often make (Other than thinking they’ll be done by 5 pm?
- And has publishing really gotten worse in the past 10 years, or are we just imagining it?
The best part? It’s exclusively for you! But first, we need to know if you’re up for it. If you’re interested in joining this discussion (and maybe even asking a burning question), please register at latest October 3rd at https://konsta.utu.fi/Default.aspx?tabid=88&tap=19929
