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.
Written by event reporter Ahmed Adel Ezat The past decade has witnessed several trials to apply artificial intelligence (AI) techniques such as deep learning (DL), to solve grand challenges in the field of structural biology and biophysics of biomolecules. One of these challenges is the protein…
Written by event reporter Daniela Castillo Perez The 2023 edition of the EMBL–Wellcome Connecting Science Conference ‘Proteomics in cell biology and disease mechanisms’ was highly organised to cover a broad range of topics. The event was composed by a very dynamic program including…
Written by event reporter Elisa Heinzelmann The ability to grow human tissues from stem cells in 3D culture has the potential to revolutionize drug discovery processes and regenerative medicine. Building on a long tradition of cell and developmental biology knowledge, organoids resembling a variety…
Vera Janssen, a PhD student at the Amsterdam Medical Centre in the Netherlands visited the conference as a graduate intern in 2019 and returned this year as a conference reporter.
Aditya, a final year PhD student from India, attended 'The human microbiome' symposium as an event reporter. Find out about his experience and the main scientific takeaways from the meeting.
Written by event reporter Parisa Naeli (@PariN39103649) The Protein Synthesis and Translational Control Conference took place from 6 – 10 September in Heidelberg, Germany and was a unique gathering of researchers in the field of mRNA translation, a mechanism central to shaping cellular…
In line with EMBL’s transversal themes, we’ve introduced some new events for 2024’s calendar of courses and conferences. EMBL’s research aims to understand the basis of life, gaining a molecular understanding of organisms in the context of different environments. EMBL scientists…
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…
Today marks the UN-declared day for world youth skills; something we are passionate about at EMBL. We aim to equip the next generation with the biological, bioinformatics, and data skills needed to enter a career in STEM. At EMBL-EBI we have a wide array of free-to-access tutorials, recordings, and…
