Specific activities of the PhD programme in Vision Sciences
Welcome seminar for new doctoral students each year, in which the members of the Academic Committee present the programme, its professors and activities. In addition, a doctoral student in their final year and a graduate of the programme will talk about their doctoral experience and present their thesis and its relation to their current work, respectively.
Refresher seminars on research in ophthalmology and vision sciences, and other aspects of biomedical research. These are 50-minute talks followed by a colloquium, held on alternate Wednesdays from 16:30 to 17:30 between October and June each year. See calendar.
Workshop on managing emotions in doctoral training; highly recommended.
A group of doctoral students, selected in their second or third year of enrolment in the programme, will give a short presentation on the progress of their doctoral thesis. A panel, made up of three lecturers from the programme together with the coordinator, will select the best presentation, which will receive a diploma and a small prize.
