Meet Our PhD Fellows: Sharing Their Passion for Science_6
Our EpiSeedLink PhD students are stepping in front of the camera to share their passion for science and give you a glimpse into their research within the project.
Training in Science Communication
As part of their training in science communication and public engagement, our EpiSeedLink PhD students are creating short videos to present their research and key scientific topics from the project.
Video Series
These videos will be posted every two weeks on EpiSeedLink’s social media channels, giving the public a front-row view of the research questions and discoveries of the next generation of scientists.
Sixth Video Spotlight
The sixth video features Stefania Paltrinieri PhD student at the Université Clermont-Auvergne, (UCA), who explores how plants decide the best moment to germinate and the molecular mechanisms involved.
