1st PIER Science Slam
On 4 May 2022, the first PIER Science Slam took place at the DESY auditorium. Five "slammies" - all of them postdocs or doctoral researchers from DESY or UHH - gave highly entertaining presentations of their research.
Wow, thank you all for coming! It was a blast. We had so much fun at the 1st PIER Science Slam on May 4 in the DESY Auditorium.
Special thanks go to our five science slammers who blew away the audience with their amazing presentations:
- Nidin Vadassery, PhD student at CFEL, DESY, IMPR-UFAST, experimental laser physics
- Judita Beinortaite, PhD student at DESY, theoretical Physics
- Maria Font, PhD student at CSSB, DESY, structural biology
- Ben Otange, PhD student at CHyN, Universität Hamburg, physics
- Benoît Richard, PhD student at CFEL, DESY, theoretical laser physics
The winner was determined by the audience and thier applause. It was such a close race, but Judita was found to have won this friendly battle of wits! Congrats to her but also to all other slammers who did a great job entertaining the audience!
