The JIPI is organized since 2013 by PhD researchers from different universities and reserach centers. It started by PhD fellows of the Physics Faculty of the Universitat de Barcelona, but rapidly gained support from different universities and research centers, IEC societies and other entities, and more PhD fellows joined the organization.
The main part of the meeting are the Flash Talks, given by the PhD fellows in a very casual and informative way. The best Flash Talks, voted by the students, receive an award in the end of the session. The meeting also includes a couple of Poster Sessions, a Speed Networking Session (since the very first edition), and debates and workshops of interest for PhD fellows, such as Communcation, Career Path, Women in Science or Research outside Academia.
