ISCA-SAC: 2^nd Mentoring (October 26, 2020)

The 2^nd Mentoring event was organized online by ISCA-SAC at Interspeech 2020 in Shanghai/China. PhD students had the opportunity to discuss one of the following topics with a team of two mentors per topic:

• Essentials of publishing 📖 📊
• PhD topic: focus and passion 🔎 😍
• Time management for PhD students ⏰ 📅
• Professional development: planning ahead 🖥 🌎
• How to do research in academia vs. industry 👨‍🏫 👩‍🔬

We thank all mentors and students for making this event possible!

ISCA-SAC: 6^th Doctoral Consortium (October 24, 2020)

Today eleven PhD students had the chance to present their thesis work to a panel of experts at the 6^th Doctoral Consortium organized online by ISCA’s Student Advisory Committee (SAC). Each presentation was followed by a discussion with the experts aimed at establishing a roadmap toward refining the thesis. We are happy that students and experts from many different time zones have gathered to make this possible! 🕐 🕒 🕔 🕗 🕚

P&P 16 (September 10-11, 2020)

The online version of P&P was a great success! The organizers have shown that it is possible to create real conference flair online by choosing the right platform and sending each participant a coffee break kit 🍪 ☕ in advance. Thanks a lot to Angelika Braun, Sophia Fünfgeld, Peter Knopp, Judith Manzoni-Luxenburger, and their team at the University of Trier.
