KTH Energy Dialogue awards three winners in this year’s poster competition
KTH Energy Dialogue wrapped up with an award ceremony for a poster competition that was held during the day. After reviewing some 30 entries, the jury named the three winners: Ronald Mauricio Lara Prado, Malin Pehrs, and Elina Charatsidou.
Lara Prado works at the Department of Chemical Engineering and his entry was entitled: Pyrolysis of Biomass Residues .
Pehrs is also at the Department of Chemical Engineering and submitted her poster: How to Realize the Swedish Potential for Negative Emissions from BECCS .
Charatsidou is a PhD student at the Division of Nuclear Engineering and showed her poster entitled Advanced Nuclear Fuel Research and Development.
The three lucky winners won a day’s communication training at VA (Public & Science) , an independent Swedish non-profit membership organisation that works to promote dialogue and openness between researchers and the public.
This year’s jury included Cissi Askwall, National Co-ordinator at the Swedish Research Council, Francesco Fuso-Nerini, Director KTH Climate Action Centre, and last year’s winner Elise Farah, PhD student at the Department of Chemical Engineering.
“For me, the communication training meant a lot, especially when it comes to explaining my research to people who are not especially familiar with my field. It made it possible for me to tell my grandparents what I do,” Farah said.
