ICNC Pizza Club

What is it all about?

In five words: Students give lectures to students.

Most of us students have common needs:

1. Learn to become a superb lecturer.
2. Be a part of  a social scientific network.
3. Become familiar with current research.
4. Eat Pizza.

start with Pizza: continue with Lecture:

The ICNC Brain Lunch (TM) answer all of this, and within only one hour per week (+30 min lunch): 30 min Pizza, 45 min talk, 15 min questions.
