Bremen Doctoral Researcher Symposium on Marine Sciences 2025: Engage, Learn, and Network
On 8 and 9 April 2025, the Bremen Doctoral Researcher Symposium on Marine Sciences will take place jointly organised by the early career researcher support teams of MARUM – Center for Environmental Sciences and the Leibniz Centre for Tropical Marine Research (ZMT), alongside the doctoral researcher representatives of MARUM, the graduate School GLOMAR, and ZMT. The two-day symposium represents a unique opportunity for doctoral researchers to present their work, enhance their public speaking skills, and engage with peers across disciplines. The ZMT Academy, therefore, encourages doctoral researchers to prepare presentations accessible to an interdisciplinary audience. Participants will receive constructive feedback, and a prize will be awarded for the best presentation. We exclusively invite registrations from Doctoral Researchers officially affiliated to ZMT and / or MARUM / GLOMAR.
