Slov - "Sál A. Kochanovské" - část A (podium) Solid/1.NP/P.23/1 (Slovanka)

We are pleased to invite you to the Physics For Future Colloquium 2026, taking place from May 11–13, 2026, at the Institute of Physics of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague (FZU).

Over the course of three days, you will have the opportunity to explore the research achievements of our fellows across various fields of physics. Presentations will follow a science café format to make cutting-edge physics accessible and engaging for a broad audience, including non-experts.

The programme also includes sessions dedicated to possible alternative careers after achieving the doctoral title, such as science diplomacy, research management or an editor of a research magazine.

Another session will be dedicated to a way of transition from lab to industry, where the speakers will speak about their careers.
