Junior Researcher Panel at ILLA 2017 Freiburg

 
The first meeting took place on 8th September 2017 in Freiburg, under the initiative of Yinchun Bai, Isabelle Gauer and Jana Werner (see panel program here). The purpose of the panel was to provide a platform for junior researchers to be informed of the development in the working field, to exchange project ideas and methodologies, and to work towards the establishment of a junior researcher network within ILLA.

To present the research topics, the participants were asked to give short lightning talks – 5-minute presentations of the individual research projects in terms of their topic, methodology, and hypotheses/results. Additionally, mini-posters (in relation to the talks) were put up for the duration of the conference. You can find the online gallery with the mini-posters below.
Linda Pfister received the prize for the most promising project (voted by the participants of the panel). Congratulations!
