Irchel Campus, where the seminar takes place.
A Meet-Up of Zurich's Neuroscientists
Info
The ZNZ Science & Drinks Seminar Series is an open regular event, where people, enthusiastic about neuroscience can get to know each other.
It takes place on the
last Tuesday of every month in a semester.
Anybody is welcome!
Concept
In the seminar snacks are provided and drinks can be bought for a small compensation (~1 CHF) while the seminar content alternates:
-
Ph.D. students and Post-Docs present their work to others and get to hear fresh perspectives on their work, while the audience get to know Zurich's research sphere
or
-
We interview and have an open discussion with people that have established themselves in research and/or industry about specific topics, e.g. creativity in science, diversity in science, or science communication.
About Us
The Science & Drinks Seminar was founded by 6 Ph.D. Students shortly after enrolling at the doctoral program of the Neuroscience Center Zurich.
Their aim was to connect neuroscience Ph.D. students scattered across the city, sometimes in labs isolated from larger university buildings.
The idea is to use the shared passion in neuroscience to get to know other people and their work.
Everybody is welcome!
