To all Douglas students, postdocs, and research assistants:
The Douglas Research Blitz is continuing this year in an in-person format, for sharing and discussing our research!
- Do you want to practice your presentation skills?
- Do you have a project idea and would like peer feedback?
- Do you have a brand new result that you can’t wait to share?
- Did you design a cool new technique and want others to know about it?
- Or maybe you are interested in networking with fellow researchers in a casual setting?
If any of these sounds appealing, then the Douglas Research Blitz is for you!
The Research Blitz will feature a series of short presentations (3-5 min each, 3 slides max) followed by feedback and discussion. It will take place in person, on Wednesday, November 12th 2025, from 4 pm to 5 pm, in the Perry Pavilion (E-3517) at the Douglas Mental Health University Institute.
If you are interested in presenting, we invite you to submit a short outline of your presentation (maximum of 125 words) in English or French to douglas.academic.life@gmail.com before Monday, October 27th at 5pm. Please also provide a short title, your level of study, and the name of the PI who supervises you. Possible presentation topics include a proposed project idea, collected data, laboratory/statistical techniques, and other topics related to your research.
It does not need to be a finalized and well-polished study! Applicants will be notified soon after the deadline whether they were selected to present.
We welcome submissions from all students and postdocs of the research centre, as well as research assistants, and highly encourage attendance from PIs and staffalike!
Looking forward to seeing you at the Research Blitz!
