Hi all,

There are still a few days left to register as a presenter for this year’s Kaamos Symposium. You have the option to give a 20-minute talk, a 30-minute talk or a poster presentation, and you can choose to deliver your oral presentation in person or online. Especially PhD researchers and postdocs this is a good opportunity for you to present your research and recent results. Also, master’s students are warmly welcome to present their master’s thesis results and this is a good and safe place to get to practice presenting at a scientific conference. Master’s students can also get extra credits from presenting at Kaamos. All topics in biology and environmental sciences are welcome! 😊
