Dust off your posters
…and change the universe


On September 29th 2022, we will take a look at the recent past and near future of research at the Faculty of Medicine at the RWTH Aachen University. Young scientists will be able to exchange their experience in science and discuss the influence of the pandemic on their research and their future goals.

As a highlight, the keynote address will be given by Staffan Normark, a former member of the Nobel committee.

Thursday, September 29th, 16:30 – 19:45 at CT² (Forckenbeckstraße 71, 52074 Aachen)
