Mange folk sitter på stolen på en scene

The Young Researcher’s Night is part of the annual national festival, Forskningsdagene. The theme for this year's festival is health. Therefore, we highlight some of the young PhD students and postdocs working in this field at the University of Stavanger and the University Hospital.  

Our speakers have prepared engaging presentations on diverse topics in health research and are looking forward to your questions. Do not miss the chance to meet and interact with young researchers from your region who are developing the future of health research. 

The event is a collaboration with the University Library in Stavanger and Young Academy of Norway.
