Fees
The Research Day is only open to all PhDs. For NIG PhD members, participation is free. For non-members the personal contribution is €30,00.
On Wednesday, 3 June 2026, the fifth edition of the NIG PhD Research Day will take place! During this annual event, NIG-PhD researchers have the opportunity to present their research in a conference-style environment to fellow PhDs.
The programme includes presentations by PhD researchers, interactive discussion sessions, and a plenary panel discussion. This day will allow you to practice your presentation skills, receive and give feedback, and socialise.
You do not have to present a full paper. Feel free to also present a draft of a research idea, an impact project or other work. You are, of course, also welcome to join the PhD research day if you do not want to present anything.
Register via this registration form.
Deadlines:
- Registration deadline(abstract/presentation description): Friday, 1 May 2026.
- Submission deadline(paper/presentation/infographic/idea): Tuesday, 26 May 2026.
