7th BSE PhD Jamboree (online edition)
This October, PhD students in the Barcelona School of Economics research community held the 7th BSE PhD Jamboree. Since the first edition in 2014, this two-day workshop has provided an opportunity for these future academics to practice presenting their work to their peers. This year's edition was held online.
