CONFERENCE OF YOUNG SCIENTISTS AND POST-GRADUATE STUDENTS IEP-2023

Institute of Electron Physics, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, announces the 11th Conference of Young Scientists and post-graduate students (IEP-2023). This conference has become an important forum to present the results of research performed by students challenging for their M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees. Besides, it is an efficient way to reveal gifted young people, to let them share their results and exchange experience. And we perfectly understand that now, more than ever, it is necessary to hold such international scientific events.

In the hardness of war, we look into the future with hope and plan a combined offline + online conference format. We will inform you about any possible changes which now can hardly be foreseen. After the end of the conference, all speakers will receive electronic certificates of participation, and the best reports will be determined, the authors of which will be awarded diplomas.

In recent years, our conference programmes included invited lectures by known Ukrainian and foreign scientists. At IEP-2023, we also expect invited lectures on current problems of science and technology to be given by leading scientists from Ukraine and other countries.

The conference will be held on May 15-18, 2023
