About the seminars:

Since the academic year 2011/2012, the seminars at the Department of Nuclear Chemistry follow a revised schedule. Since 2015 the seminar is open to broad nuclear chemistry community and is run in collaboration with the Nuclear Chemistry Working Group of the Czech Chemical Society. The seminars are held once a month in the winter and summer semester and are planned as a day-long event. The general structure of the newly designed seminars is as follows (all times include discussion):

Opening invited lecture by an eminent expert from Czech or foreign institution (90 minutes)

Ph.D. students’ summaries of their last-year research results (usually 3 students, 40 minutes each)

Presentation of the progress in key projects running at the DNC (as appropriate, approx 30 minutes per project)

Presentation of findings from major conferences and other events attended recently by the DNC members.

Participation in the seminar is mandatory for all doctoral students in full-time study and all students working on their diploma theses. Participation is “highly recommended” for doctoral students in combined form of the study, all other master students, and students working on their bachelor theses.  Undergraduate students are welcome, as well as guests from other departments and institutions.

One of the aims of the re-shaped seminar is to get a better overview of the status and progress of research activities of doctoral students and strengthen links between nuclear chemistry doctoral students working in institutions outside the department main complex. For this reason, once a year, every doctoral student (including those enrolled in the combined studies) must give an overview presentation of their results achieved so far.

If approved by the speaker, the invited talks are recorded and archived using the SlidesLive system. Dr. Kateřina Čubová is responsible for the programme content and scheduling of the seminars…
