2018/03/12 - 2019/03/15 | Organization of the 13th Annual Meeting of Gulbenkian Students (AMeeGuS). All the members of the committee shared the
responsibility of selecting the venue, contacting the invited speakers and the allocation of oral and poster presentations
of the students. My main responsibility was to coordinate the travel of the participants and ensuring their attendance. We
were also in charge of the social events in the Institute, as fundraising events for our retreat and charity, international
food festivals and beer hours. (2019/03/12 - 2019/03/15)
