AURA Symposium 2025

AURA Symposium to take place in Spring 2025

The AURA (Aboa Universities Research Advances) Symposium is a biennially organized two-day research and learning event for PhD and Master’s students. The Symposium is organized jointly by PhD students from the University of Turku (UTU) and Åbo Akademi University (ÅAU).

The objective of the symposium is to provide a forum for PhD students from primarily UTU and ÅAU, but also other Finnish universities, to present and discuss their research and to practice talking to a broad audience. Furthermore, participants will hear inspirational presentations from four invited keynote speakers.

AURA 2025 will be hosted in person.

Participation is cost-free and open for all researchers from all areas of biology, geography, and geology. Preference for presentation is given to PhD and Master’s students who are enrolled in Finnish universities. Presenting in the symposium will be rewarded with 2 ECTS and participation with 1 ECTS (more information on the Abstract will come soon).
