[ecoop-info] ECOOP 2016 Doctoral Symposium

[Emilio Coppa]

The ECOOP Doctoral Symposium provides a forum for both early- and
late-stage PhD students to present their research and get detailed feedback
and advice. The main objectives of this event are:

 - to allow PhD students to practice writing clearly and to present their
research proposal effectively
 - to get constructive feedback from other researchers
 - to build bridges for potential research collaboration
 - to contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other
researchers at the main conference.

# Event Format

This is a full-day event of interactive presentations. The day will start
with a series of lightning talks when each PhD student gives an “elevator
pitch” of their research and continue with formal presentations by the PhD
students and presentation discussions. Besides the formal presentations and
discussions in sessions, there will be plenty of opportunities for informal
interactions during breaks, lunch and (possibly) dinner. It is also planned
that members of the academic panel will give short presentations and other
research community members will give talks on a variety of topics related
to PhD studies and doing research.
