Elk jaar opnieuw in oktober vindt de Onderzoeksdag van de Faculteit Farmaceutische, Biomedische en Diergeneeskundige Wetenschappen plaats.

Zowel nieuw aangestelde professoren als doctorandi lichten die dag hun onderzoeksproject nader toe en delen zo hun wetenschappelijke ervaringen.

Naast opleidingsspecifieke infosessies voor masterstudenten, vindt in de voormiddag een posterbeurs plaats die doorlopend te bezoeken is.

Dit jaar vindt de Onderzoeksdag op vrijdag 24 oktober 2025 plaats. 

Studenten 1ste Master zijn verplicht de héle dag aanwezig, studenten 2^e Master hoeven enkel bij de presentaties in de namiddag verplicht aanwezig te zijn. Je aanwezigheid zal geregistreerd worden.
