All the students’ posters will also be available at the web-page soon.
In addition to all the educative and research presentation, a Career Panel was held, that provided some helpful insights about job search in academia/industry/government. Although no session is so far announced for the next year, if it happens, I highly recommend to attend.
If you have some question about the presentations, Kevin and I will be happy to tell you more.
