New Platforms for Molecular Solutions in Research and Development
It is our pleasure to announce the fifth workshop organized by the EU FP7 project InnoMol: New Platforms for Molecular Solutions in Research and Development
The workshop will take place from May 11-12, 2016 at the Ruđer Bošković Institute, Zagreb, Croatia.
The aim of this workshop is to demonstrate the enhanced S&T capacities and capabilities of RBI scientists, in the field of Molecular Biosciences, with a special focus on elaborating the new research pipeline. The content of workshop is arranged so as to present a coherent overview of the newly installed equipment and the novel methods learned by project staff during secondment visits to leading European laboratories.
There will be no registration fee for attendees. The workshop is primarily intended for Postdoctoral Researchers and PhD students. Nevertheless, other participants are welcome. The official languages of the Workshop are Croatian and English.
We can accept up to 70 participants to follow the lectures.
Registration for the Workshop is now open. LINK
