PhD Cup 2019: Are you the next winner?

Each year, five finalists compete for the annual PhD Cup and the DKK 30,000 that come with it. If you excel at communicating your research and if your PhD was approved in 2018, you could be the next winner. The deadline for registration is 1 February 2019.

 

Communicating complex scientific results to the general public is no easy task. As the Danish newspaper Information, the Danish public television company DR and the Lundbeck Foundation also recognise. For that reason, they are using their joint project, i.e. the research communication competition the PhD Cup, to acknowledge young researchers who master this difficult discipline.

On DR’s website, you can watch videos with all the previous winners. Would you like to try your hand at communicating your research on the large stage in DR’s Koncerthuset and on national television? Then read more and sign up on the PhD Cup 2019’s website. The registration deadline is 1 February 2019, and all applicants will get a reply on 7 March 2019.

The winner of the PhD Cup will receive DKK 30,000, which can either be used for a research trip, an individual programme focusing on written research communication, or a research film.
