Welcome Event

What?

Did you recently join ETH as a PhD student or Postdoc? Then you are cordially invited to the Welcome Event for new scientific staff on Thursday, October 6th. The Welcome Event is a great chance to get to know the department and VMI, meet fellow new staff members, and enjoy an apéro together.

We will have separate events for PhDs and Postdocs, happening in parallel, with a joint apéro in CAB food&lab afterwards. We have two great keynote speakers lined up for you, Prof. Markus Püschel and Prof. Kenny Paterson, who will share some insights and give helpful tips on how to make the most of your time at D-INFK.
