About us
Who is behind organizing the Symposium this year?
Edoardo Trasa: Chairman of Symposium Committee 2025
Hi there, my name is Edoardo, and I’m the Chair of this amazing committee.
I’m a 4th-year chemistry student, and I have been quite active in De CB. I have been in the Education Committee since my first year, both as chair and as general member. I have also been the Educational Affairs of the association for board 58, along with Nanne, the acquisition member of this committee.
I learned and had a lot of fun, but I thought it was time to continue on some career-focused activities, making the Symposium Committee the perfect fit for me!
Excited for this day, hope to see you all there!


Cristina-Andreea Iamandei: Secretary of Symposium Committee 2025
Hello, everyone, my name is Andreea, and I have the pleasure of being the Secretary of this year's wonderful Symposium committee.
I am a third-year Chemistry student from Romania, and some of you might previously know me from the Activities Committee, as with Beatrice.
This year, I wanted to get more involved with de CB and try something new, so here I am!
We've got some wonderful speakers lined up for you, and we hope you're just as excited as we are to hear from them.
See you at the Symposium!
Beatrice Cugut: Treasurer of Symposium Committee 2025
Hii,
My name is Beatrice and I'm currently doing my minor in "Energy Transition from a Multidisciplinary Perspective".
For the last three years I was part of the Activities Committee, so I am very used to organizing bigger events while managing the finances.
I decided it's time for something new, and the Symposium was my chance to branch out.
We are very excited to hear from our wonderful speakers, so thanks for joining us today!))


Nanne Dijksterhuis: Acquisition of Symposium Committee 2025
Hello peeps,
My name is Nanne, I’m a fourth year chemistry student and I am getting this year's acquisition for the symposium!
It might not be surprising to see me in this position, as I was Intern and Extern of the 58th board and it’s also my third year in BACo. Next to that, I’ve also done enough other fun committees, so I hope my experience will help make the symposium unforgettable!
Koen Veenstra: Contact Speaker of Symposium Committee 2025
Yo!
My name is Koen and I am filling this symposium’s role of contact speakers. I am in my third year of my bachelor's degree. The symposium is the third committee for me, as I have been part of the BorrelCie and RedakCie since my first year. I wanted to explore the professional world of chemistry more; hence, I joined the Symposium Committee. I hope this year’s symposium will be a wonderful experience for the speakers as well as the attendees.
Over and out.
