The Annual PhD Student Seminar took place on Monday, December 9, at the Josep Tarrag\u00f3 Auditorium in Torre Marimon and was also accessible virtually. Eighteen candidates in the final phase of their theses presented their research, covering a wide range of topics and showcasing their significant contributions to their respective fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attendees had the opportunity to ask questions, provide feedback, and engage in discussions, fostering both academic exchange and professional networking. The event brought together a dynamic group, creating a productive atmosphere where participants connected, exchanged ideas, and gained insight into each other’s work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A special midday session with Dr. Mar\u00e7al Verd\u00fa, an IRTA alumnus, added significant value to the day. Verd\u00fa shared insights into his current work at Bon\u00c0rea and reflected on his professional journey. He offered practical advice to PhD students, emphasizing the importance of their skills in industrial settings and the significant impact they can have in driving change and innovation within the sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The guest speaker for this edition was Dr. Jordi Gen\u00e9, a researcher at IRTA Consolida in the Efficient Water Use Program. He delivered an insightful talk on the use and application of artificial intelligence in agriculture, as well as how he achieved his research goals and shaped his professional career. His presentation was inspiring for those soon to become doctors, as he shared valuable advice on fostering curiosity and innovation alongside the drive to acquire key knowledge for success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the seminar\u2019s highlights was the vote for Best Presentation, which recognized Teodor Jov\u00e9 from the Animal Breeding and Genetics Program for his outstanding work titled “Bloody RNA! Unveiling the Blood Transcriptome: Regulatory Variants Involved in Pig Immunity.”<\/em> His engaging presentation earned him a special award\u2014full coverage for an open-access publication based on his research findings. Congratulations, Teodor!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are pleased with the positive participation and the quality of discussions throughout the day. Events like this seminar continue to provide a valuable platform for PhD candidates to share their work, connect with peers, and build lasting networks. We look forward to organizing more events like this in the future, fostering collaboration and celebrating the achievements of our research community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":84160,"template":"","categoria_noticia":[],"etiqueta_filtrar_noticia":[],"class_list":["post-84861","noticia","type-noticia","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\r\nThe 6th Annual PhD Candidates Seminar: A Day of Research and Networking » IRTA<\/title>\r\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\r\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.irta.cat\/en\/noticia\/the-6th-annual-phd-candidates-seminar-a-day-of-research-and-networking\/\" \/>\r\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\r\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\r\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"The 6th Annual PhD Candidates Seminar: A Day of Research and Networking » IRTA\" \/>\r\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Annual PhD Student Seminar took place on Monday, December 9, at the Josep Tarrag\u00f3 Auditorium in Torre Marimon and was also accessible virtually.
