Joanna Sadowska, representative of the UPC in the "Thesis in 4 minutes" contest

Joanna Sadowska, BBT PhD student, has been chosen as a representative of the UPC for the "Thesis in 4 minutes" competition, organized by the Catalan Foundation for Research and Innovation, with the support of the Generalitat of Catalonia.

The purpose of the competition is to propose to PhD students, of any scientific discipline, the challenge to explain their research for a maximum time of 4 minutes with a simple and easily understandable language for a general public.

Joanna has been chosen as a representative of the UPC, by popular vote, during the Institutional Final contest, which was held today at the Vèrtex Building, along with the Open Day of the Doctoral School

The Interuniversity final of the contest will take place on June 6th at 5:00 pm at the Auditori Movistar in Barcelona, in a single, open and public session. The approximate capacity is for 200 people and it is expected that attendees will be students of the undergraduate, master's, doctorate, high school, training cycles and the general public. In this session, the 12 representatives of each of the Catalan universities will participate, in alphabetical order of intervention.
