Our mission is to train scientists. This blog is a platform for us to share updates on our annual programme, tips and tricks for scientists, new e-learning opportunities, and sometimes just something to make you smile.
In July, the EMBO | EMBL Symposium ‘Theory and concepts in biology’ took place for the first time ever, bringing together an interdisciplinary community and providing a platform to discuss perspectives on the role of theory in biology, and importantly also vice versa, the impact that…
In case you missed 'Predicting evolution' here we present to you the five best poster prize winners. Read on to find out about their research!
Since 2013, this symposium has become a must-attend event for scientists working with bacteria and new technologies. For the past 10 years, the focus of the meeting has remained on the interface of new technologies and new biology in bacteria, but the thematic areas change and speaker…
This year the annual EMBL Conference ‘BioMalPar XIX: biology and pathology of the malaria parasite’ took place 23 – 25 May in a hybrid format. If you have been to BioMalPar before, you know how special this community is and that you wouldn’t want to miss the event! One essential…
In case you missed 'The ageing genome: from mechanisms to disease' here we present to you the three best poster prize winners. Read on to find out about their research!
Written by event reporter Patricia Bondia The VIZBI congress is a one-of-a-kind event that highlights the power of visualisation in comprehending complex scientific data. Experts from a wide range of disciplines — from genomics to ecosystems and art — come together to share their latest…
