The DIW Graduate Center is pleased to offer a workshop on giving scientific presentations. It is designed for all doctoral students and researchers at the DIW who would like to improve their skills in talking in front of an audience.

Please register with Daniela Centemero (dcentemero@diw.de) by April 29, 2022 for one of the two workshops and also indicate the availability for the alternative date. Please note: Registrations will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.
