The Three-Minute Thesis Competition (3MT)
The Three-Minute Thesis Competition (3MT) is an academic competition challenging PhD students to present their research in under three minutes to a general audience, in English.
The 3MT celebrates research discoveries and encourages you to share the significance of your PhD project with a broader community in an engaging, audience-friendly way.
Eligibility: PhD students in their final year are eligible if they will defend their thesis after June 2025. Participants must still be enrolled as PhD students as of March 2025.
This year, the University of Bologna will also host the competition’s final round in June 2025, as part of the Coimbra Group Annual Conference!

BACK TO FUNDAMENTALS OF RESEARCH Ethics and Academic Freedom
Ethics and Academic Freedom
What new ethical concerns and potential risks for research freedom are we confronted with? What actions should institutions and researchers put in place to turn them into opportunities? Which are the measures to protect, facilitate, strengthen and optimize academic freedom? How to ensure an adequate balancing between opposite interests to build a responsible research ecosystem?
The use of new technologies, such as generative artificial intelligence, and the rapid changes in the geopolitical landscape deeply affect our research ecosystem and impact upon the different ethical dimensions of research. This event seeks to explore possible new ethical concerns and risks for research integrity and the countermeasures that institutions and researchers might adopt in order to turn them into opportunities.
