Prof. Josef Köhrle, Institute of Experimental Endocrinology, Germany
Endocrine disruption of thyroid development and function
Host: Jorma Toppari (jortop@utu.fi)

Coffee and sandwich served at 11:45

Six students and early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch in restaurant Mauno and discuss with Prof. Köhrle after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in friendly environment and create connections for future. Every student are welcome to join, in spite of which research group they belong to. BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.

If you got interested, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi

Prof. Dr. Josef Köhrle is working at the Institute of Experimental Endocrinology and dedicated to basic and translational science in the field of Endocrinology, with a strong focus on thyroid function and regulation, metabolism and action of thyroid hormones and their metabolits as well as interference of endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC) on the thyroid hormone system.
