The Separation Science Slam
- The Separation Science Slam is a science competition –not a scientific presentation. It is about bringing your own research closer to the HPLC 2025 audience in an entertaining but understandable way.
- You are on stage and have 3 minutes to impress the HPLC 2025 attendees with free speech, animated PowerPoint presentations, illustrative images, a poem, a rap, a cabaret, …your creativity!
- Awards: Gold = 1250 €, Silver = 750 €, Bronze = 500 €
Criteria for evaluation
- Best performance will be selected via electronic audience poll, insisting contributions would be judged, in addition to the scientific content, the entertainment value, comprehensibility, creativity and technical skills.
- Contributions with discriminative, insulting, or offensive language will be excluded.
Who can participate?
- Scientists (academic or industrial) of any age involved in research projects related to the liquid chromatography workflow (before, during or after).
- Submissions from individuals or groups are welcome.
