PhD/Post Doc workshop at Klækken, September 2016

The statistics groups at the University of Oslo and the Norwegian University of Life Sciences invite all PhD-students and postdocs within statistics in the Oslo-region as well as their teachers and supervisors to a  2-days workshop.

Hotel at Klækken

The workshop will start at lunch time Friday September 9th and it will end around lunch time Saturday September 10th (with lunch included both days).

Travel from Oslo and the stay at Klækken hotell (www.klaekken.no) will be covered by the individual institutions.

At the workshop the PhD.-students are expected to give a 20-25 minutes presentation of their ongoing research, the aim being to strengthen the professional communication between the combined group of PhD-students and teachers/supervisors. Postdocs who want to present their work are also welcome to do so.

In addition to Phd/Postdoc talks also Ingrid Hobæk Haff, Torgeir R Hvidsten and Peter Muller will give plenary talks.

Registration for the workshop has deadline August 20. Registration here
