Lunch and seminar programme spring 2026 for IKK practice-based PhD students

As in previous semesters, we will begin this semester's three meetings with a light lunch, which will also provide an opportunity to share experiences and relevant news from the world of PhD studies with each other. 

5 February 12:00-15:00 w. Nanna Debois Buhl talking about her artistic research practice, PhD work and postdoctoral project. 

9 April 12:00-15:00 In-depth reading of participants’ excerpts and chapters. Let me know if you would like us to discuss and give peer feedback on an excerpt from your dissertational work. 

21 May 12:00-15:00 On writing. Possibly with invited coach. In this session we will also prepare for a writing retreat in the next semester. 

On February 18, from 9:00 to 12:00, PASS is launching a pilot project with a three-hour workshop on how to handle and use the press as a researcher. The course will be held in Danish, and we are offering it in collaboration with the University of Copenhagen's communications department. The course description is as follows: A workshop on research communication, where we will talk in general terms about the things that researchers need to consider and be aware of when working with the media (e.g., level of abstraction, language, news criteria, etc.), but also about how the media works, what their focus is, and how you can do a lot to optimize your collaboration with journalists (including things like making clear agreements, getting quotes for review, how to steer the conversation by building bridges to something other than what the journalist is asking about, etc.).

Of course, we will also talk about what you can do to avoid ending up in the shitstorms that everyone who works with politicized issues (rightly) fears—and what you can do if you do end up there! We will do this as a mixture of presentations and discussions—in a space that is both pleasant and safe.
