USB conference of doctoral students
November 3 - 4, 2021
Room Z1 in building ZR of the USB campus
Not only COVID-19 is a clear evidence of the emerging fact that natural sciences cannot further be separated from social sciences
and humanities. Interdisciplinary approach to problem-solving is nowadays more urgent than ever before.
The idea of this conference stands on the following three pillars:
A need to strengthen social integration of doctoral students beyond fields and faculties
Unity of science and mutual respect of researchers from all fields as the basis for further successful development of science
Necessity of interdisciplinary approach to solving many actual global challenges
The aim of this conference is to develop values corresponding to these pillars right from the beginning of Scientific career.

Contributions:
We do not impose any restrictions on the topics of the contributions. Given the aim of the conference, the contributions
should be comprehensible (at least for the most part) for a wider range of students from different disciplines, with an emphasis
on the importance of research and potential overlap into other disciplines. In principle, a brief explanation of what the researcher
aims to find and by what methods, and possibly what (partial) result have already been achieved, will suffice. Thus, we do not ask
for narrowly focused contributions, but for topics that have a potential interfaculty and / or interdisciplinary overlap. But not at any cost.
Where possible, the emphasis on interdisciplinarity is appropriate, but it should come naturally. Papers can take the form of both
presentations and posters.
Further information:
Attendance at the conference is free.
Attendance at the conference is voluntary.
The language of the conference is English. In justified cases, Czech or Slovak is possible.
At the end of the conference, we will announce and reward one presentation and one poster in each of the four scientific areas
of the USB School of Doctoral Studies: natural sciences, humanities, agricultural sciences and social sciences and health care.
In addition, we will also announce and reward one presentation and one poster regarding the interdisciplinarity of the topic.
Program:
The effort of the program committee will be to compose the contributions into individual blocks in a varied way, so as not to isolate
individual scientific disciplines.
