WHAT IS WST?

WST is a one hour session of max 5-minute talks, arranged three times a year.

- Everyone is welcome, but the presentation topics should be relevant to JYU.Wisdom (e.g., planetary wellbeing, sustainability, conservation, circular economy, societal impact)

- No post-presentation discussion, just presentations

- No pressure to give top-notch presentations; WST strives for informative talks in an informal atmosphere.

WHY JOIN WST?

- Get an update on your colleagues’ research and other news in an hour. 

- Share your latest work: new research, new funding, new book, event you are organizing, ideas in need of collaborators, etc.
