Debye Visiting Chair
The Debye Visiting Chair event is a six-week visiting period for an eminent scientist in the field of Catalysis, Colloids or Nanophotonics. The visiting chair gives a lecture series for the institute's PhD candidates and a colloquium. The lecture series is part of the PhD educational program of the Debye Institute (1.0 ECTS). Besides improving knowledge about the institute's research topics, the program also aims to stimulate collaboration and scientific discussions between the Visiting Chair and the members of the institute.
