Doctoral Consortium – Tuesday, July 22nd
The AEID’2025 Doctoral Consortium will take place on 22 July, in parallel with conference workshops. It will run as a full-day event.
It will be divided into two thematic sessions. Each session will begin with a round of brief presentations, where each participant will have approximately (5-10) minutes to introduce their research project to the group in a “carousel”-style format.
After the presentations, we will continue with a poster and discussion session, where students can engage more deeply with mentors and attendees about their research.
