The Doctoral Forum will run on June 29 in parallel with the conference Workshops and Tutorials. This is the program of the Doctoral Forum:
Top-level research is a highly competitive environment: funding; recruiting; publishing; impact … If you move in the first division, academia is like a premier league, and top researchers are high-level competition athletes. Is that too stressing? Where is the fun? Depends on the perspective. There is no unique recipe, but I’ll share my own experience and hope to show that it can be a unique life, if you do the right things.
If you manage the balance between freedom, self-responsibility, and perseverance, chances are you will go far, and have moments you'll never forget. How far? Well, if you are aiming for the gold, the nice secret of this talk is that excellence … is about details.
