In October 2015, PubhD Lisboa started.
Later this month, another PubhD is starting up in Portugal.
It is called PubhD UMinho (i.e. Universidade do Minho) and will run monthly across two cities in the north of Portugal: Braga and Guimarães.
At each PubhD event, three researchers from any subject area explain their work to an audience in a pub in exchange for a drink or two. The talks are at a “pub level” – the idea is that you don’t have to be an academic to understand the talks.
PubhD UMinho’s first event is in Guimarães on 28 January 2016.
