The HPIMS relaunches its interdisciplinary pre- and postdoc lunch lectures with four sessions in the academic year 2022-2023. We provide accessible opportunities for pre- and postdoc colleagues to present their work and collect constructive feedback. Sessions typically take place at lunch time (though after 12.30 for those who like to eat beforehand), take max. 1,5 hours and feature one or two researchers. Papers can be in Dutch, French or English. For questions and debates the language is adapted to both speaker and audience. Debates need to be constructive and will be guided by a regular moderator.

We feel it is vital to get to know your colleagues, learn about each other’s research and keep building our scholarly community!
