ZENITH Seminars

From:: Friday, 27 November 2020
To:: Wednesday, 25 May 2022
Location:: Online (Cet Timings)

With the ZENITH seminar series, students will have the opportunity to hear from international renowned speakers that will illustrate how they tackle a question at the boundary of biology and optics/physics/maths/chemistry/computer science, and how to bring new approaches to a field.

From October 2021, the seminars will be organized in collaboration with another ETN - SmartNets!
