Program
9 – 10h: Iris Uribesalgo, PhD, Policy Officer EU-LIFE
Title of the talk: Beyond the Impact Factor
Description of the talk: How does impact look beyond the impact factor? What does leadership entail, and what do values have to do with it? This is an open conversation that will lead us to reflect on the multiple dimensions of impact, rethinking scientific leadership and how our decisions can shape science.
10 – 10:30: Coffee break
10:30- 14:30h: Míriam Bayés, MD, PhD, PCC, Systemic Leadership Expert
Title of the workshop: Impactful Leadership: Moving from Reactive to Responsive
Description of the workshop: This interactive workshop is designed for postdoctoral researchers in oncology who are ready to strengthen their leadership skills and amplify their impact. Together, we will explore how to shift from reactive patterns of behaviour to responsive, conscious, and intentional leadership. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, we will discuss how brain processes shape decision-making and motivation, and how to harness this knowledge to lead with clarity and purpose. Participants will learn practical strategies to build influence in their careers, inspire their teams, and contribute meaningfully to their institutions and society.
14:30- 15:30: Lunch
15:30 – 18:30 – Networking Activity (outside of Palau Macaya)
