2nd DRFZ Grad Student & Postdoc Research Day 2024
On 16th of July, more than 40 PhD students, postdocs and invited speakers came together to learn about the research of our young scientists and gain valuable impulses for their own work. Congratulations to our poster prize winner Agata Konopka, AG Hegazy, and to Marina Bondareva, AG Kruglov, for the best presentation.
About the event:
We are thrilled to announce the second annual DRFZ Grad Student & Postdoc Research Day, following the success of last year’s PhD/MD Day. This year’s event will take place on July 16th and promises a program designed to foster collaboration and networking among graduate students and postdoctoral researchers at the DRFZ.
The day will feature engaging scientific talks, interactive workshops, and opportunities for participants to present their own research and receive valuable feedback. It serves as an ideal platform for exchanging ideas, exploring interdisciplinary connections, and building a vibrant community of young researchers.
We look forward to welcoming you to the second DRFZ Grad Student & Postdoc Research Day and creating memorable experiences together. Please find the registration form and preliminary program below.
A big thank you to Miltenyi Biotec for making this event possible for us as part of the Rocket Science Tour.
