Júlia , took part in the Rin4′ 2022 edition organised by the UPF. After an absolutely excellent presentation, she was awarded the special mention prize. Only 4 out of 10 top finalists receive a prize. We are very proud of her!

A brief overview of how the competition works: There are two stages to this competition where presenters must be able to summarise their PhD thesis topics in 4 minutes, in a clear manner using unique metaphors or examples. In the first qualifying stages, selection takes place behind closed doors, following which the top finalists present their work to a large audience, and on stage!

“I was very humbled with the support from the audience. And for me it was extra special to win on my birthday!” – Júlia Urgel
