Next Gen Seminars

The Next Gen Seminar Series offers a platform for students and postdoctoral researchers at Lund Stem Cell Center to showcase their research, receive valuable peer feedback, and build connections across diverse fields.

About the Seminars:

This internal seminar series is a forum for high-level scientific discussions about the research performed at the Center. The aim is to allow students and post-doctoral researchers to train their presentation skills in a situation that simulates a real conference setting.

Seminars are run on bi-weekly basis as a lunch seminar, on Wednesdays between 12.00 -13.00. Two presenters are allotted 20 minutes per presentation with + 10 minutes for questions. Each presenter represents different groups and fields at the Center during each seminar. Following the presentations a closed session is held where presenters will be offered structured peer feedback.

Join us for this engaging seminar series designed to foster high-level scientific discussions, enhance presentation skills, and promote collaboration and community within our research environment!
