Call for E-Posters – INESC Winter Meeting
INESC Brussels HUB invites researchers to submit proposals for posters to be displayed at the INESC Winter Meeting on January 25th 2024, in Porto (Alfândega do Porto).
Overview
The INESC Winter Meeting is about thinking our future together in Europe and aims to create a platform for individuals from all five INESC institutes to come together, forge new connections and network with one another. We invite the submission of posters illustrating the most important and representative research projects of each institution (with a focus on EU funded projects), around a set of pre-defined thematic areas merging the interests and R&I work done in each of the 5 INESC institutes.
By showcasing your poster at the INESC Winter Meeting, it will be a focal point for fostering collaborative discussions and potential collaborations. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to engage with researchers from all 5 INESCs and gain a deeper understanding of their research landscape. The submitted posters will also be used for an online catalogue the HUB is preparing, providing a concrete idea of the institute’s track record and capacity in its research and innovation domains.
The posters will be organised by the following thematic areas:
- Power and Energy Systems
- Advanced Computing
- Artificial Intelligence and Data Science
- Advanced Communications Systems and Technology
- Electronic systems, Microelectronics and Optoelectronics
- Bioengineering and Health Technologies
- Systems Engineering and Management
The posters should showcase a project rather than a research line. At a minimum, it should represent a tangible (or anticipated) outcome of a specific research direction, whether it is ongoing or completed.
If you have any doubts, you can contact us for further assistance
