The POSTER Conference is coming soon! It will present dozens of papers and one novelty

For students

A record number of posters and one novelty will be presented at this year's POSTER international conference, which allows university students to present their first research and network. The event will occur on Thursday, 22 May, at the FEE CTU in Prague—Dejvice. An expert jury will award the best works in seven categories. The conference is open to teachers and students of the FEE and the expert community. The detailed programme is here.

"This year, 60 posters have been registered, 11 more than last year," said Dr. Libor Husník, the main organizer of the conference. Libor Husník, who works at the Department of Radioelectronics at FEE, also noted that the Biomedical Engineering category has the highest number of papers, 17.

Other sections are Communications, Electronics and Instrumentation, History of Science and Technology, Informatics and Cybernetics, Natural Sciences and Power Engineering.

This year, there will not be a Management category, but there will be a new form of presentation for some contributions. "This year's novelty will be the so-called ‘elevator pitch’, i.e., a three-minute presentation of topics by 12 students," said Dr. Husník. These presentations will take place in meeting room 80.

"The POSTER conference is perfect for early-career researchers in particular, in that they get to experience the conference process and practice," emphasized Dr. Husník. Also this year, POSTER will host presenters from abroad - for example, from the Universities of Aachen, Padua, Darmstadt, and Graz. Students from CTU will be attending from the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and the Faculty of Biomedical Engineering, and there will also be presenters from the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague.
