LIGHTNING TALKS
LIGHTNING TALKS
Lightning talks are short rapid-fire talks by graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Talks are 5 minutes long followed by Q&A. Only 1 slide conveying one (and only one) key finding is permitted. Presenters will be asked to upload their slide in PDF format before the start of the conference
All lightning talks will take place on Thursday, April 27, 2023 from 10:00-11:50 am.
