In today’s science, it’s not enough to “just” publish – you need to be seen, heard, and able to communicate in the language of both science and the public. Apply for a course organized by our partner in the Aurora network – Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

We warmly invite you to participate in the BIP (Blended Intensive Programme) course Aurora Capacity Building: PhD Academy on Publishing Skills and Science Communication, which will take place October 6–10, 2025, at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

You will learn:

  • How to prepare a manuscript for publication and navigate the peer-review process.
  • How to understand the ethics of scientific publishing.
  • How to increase the visibility of your work through open access and digital tools.
  • How to turn complex scientific topics into clear and engaging messages for different audiences – using storytelling, visual communication, and media.

How to apply
Contact Martina Buráňová from the Aurora Office at UP (martina.buranova@upol.cz) by Monday, June 23, who will provide more information about registration and mobility funding for Amsterdam.
