Picture My Research Flash Talk Competition
If you had to convey the central argument or most interesting discovery of your doctoral thesis / current research project, what would it be? We challenged you to present your work in a slightly different format. Using a single image and accompanying 100 word abstract we wanted you to tell your story and grab our attention.
Successful submissions were invited to compete in our flash talk competition (19 May 3:30 pm), where they were given five minutes to convey the central argument of their work and how it relates to their chosen image to a panel of multidisciplinary judges. First Prize was awarded to Zehra Irshad, runner up prizes were awarded to Marco Cinelli and Andrij Vasylenko.
