The organizing committee of the 6th Swiss Industrial Chemistry Symposium (SICS), that took place at the Biozentrum of the University of Basel on Friday, January 30, 2026, awarded three students with the SICS Best Poster Award 2026. 75% of the posters that were presented in one of the two sessions during lunch time came from PhD students and they completed the lecture program that exclusively presented industrial project.
After the ceremony, the three winners gave a five minute short talk on their research. The SCS and the organizing committee like to take the opportunity to congratulates the winners again:
