Scientific seminars are arranged on a regular basis by IRF in Uppsala and in Kiruna. These are held on site with a possibility to attend digitally. The seminars aim to keep the staff of IRF updated on ongoing research projects and give PHD students the opportunity to practice presentation skills and to discuss their research projects. It also gives the scientists a chance to present and discuss new ideas and scientific questions. The seminars act as a platform for invited researchers from outside IRF, when it comes to present their research, share experiences from ongoing campaigns and to introduce their respecitve research intitutes.
