Topical discussions with Ukrainian students

FRANCE-UKRAINE: research and university cooperation

Rencontres entre les chercheurs en physique et les étudiants ukrainiens.

Topical physics discussions between leading researchers and Ukrainian students.  

In collaboration with French Embassy in Ukraine and Erasmus+, LIA/IRP IDEATE announces a series of topical discussions in english between the experts in the fields of high-energy and nuclear physics, medical physics, and instrumentation and Ukrainian students. A participation is open for all interested students.

The format/agenda of the discussions is the following:

– Introducing the expert, 5 minutes
– Topic introduction by the expert, 20-25 minutes
– Session of questions on the topic, 1 hour

We will run the meeting monthly, on every second Wednesday of the month at – 16-00 Paris time (17-00 Kyiv time) online.

Please indicate your first name, family name and your university year, when connecting to zoom. For example, FirstName FamilyName Year3. When you would like to ask a question, please raise your “zoom hand”, and you will be given the word.

Next zoom discussion with Ukrainian students will take place next Wednesday, October 9, 2024 at 17-00 Kyiv time (16-00 Paris time).
