Our Open Fora events are open to poster and video competitions. Know more about how to participate, our Open Fora topics and our past presenters.

Our Open Fora events unite leading academics and students from across the EU and the UK to share their research with non-expert audiences. These gatherings aim to foster connections among EU researchers based in the UK while showcasing their work.
By bringing scientific knowledge into the public sphere, Open Fora plays a vital role in promoting understanding and combating misinformation, ensuring that cutting-edge research is accessible to all.
