It is a tradition to invite PhD students to present their work in progress in a 10-minute presentation. This is an opportunity to learn about the latest developments in the Belgian radiotherapy community, exchange ideas, and tackle new challenges together.

Additionally, BeSTRO members who have not yet presented their work at a previous Spring meeting can compete for the PhD Award for the best presentation.
