SAVE THE DATE: BioCity PhD Mini-Symposium is coming!

A team of Doctoral Researchers are delighted to announce the BioCity PhD Mini-Symposium planned on the afternoon before the main symposium, i.e., on Wednesday 23rd August, 2023. This will be an ideal platform for PhD researchers and early-career post.docs to connect, network and exchange ideas before the main event. The student and researcher community of BioCity Turku has diverse scientific and technical expertise, and the intent is to facilitate interactions in an informal way.
The event itself will have two poster sessions and a few talks, with coffee, snacks and drinks of course, and the event will take place in Manu1-4 meeting room, in BioCity at 13:00-17:00.
Stay tuned for updates and program, they will appear soon!
