Graduate School Day 2026 – Celebrating Young Research!
20/21 November 2025 (Fri/Sat)
We are delighted to invite you to this year’s HGNI Graduate School Day, bringing together doctoral researchers from our three PhD programmes for two days of scientific exchange, inspiring presentations and lively discussions.
Our first-year students will showcase their research in poster presentations, while second-year students will share their latest findings in scientific talks.
Join us to discover exciting research, exchange ideas and celebrate the achievements of our young scientists!
