A celebratory event!

The Grant Award Ceremony is a celebratory event dedicated to recognizing the achievements of AGEM researchers.

During this gathering, we proudly announce the 2025 recipients of our AGEM internal grants and hold the "Best Publication Battle," where we reveal the winner of the Best Publication award. A very fun event!

In addition to these celebrations, we invite past grant recipients to give short presentations on their funded projects. This provides an excellent opportunity to showcase the impact of the AGEM grants, offering insight into how the funding has supported research endeavors.

Please join us for this fun event! What better way to end a thursday than celebrations, a great battle, snacks, and drinks?
