12th BioSC Forum (Internal Retreat)

April 15, 2026 • full day • Central Library, Forschungszentrum Jülich

 

The BioSC Forum is the internal retreat of the BioSC research network and offers all members of the network the opportunity to network and to inform each other about current developments and the state of research.

At this forum, the focus lies on reviewing the successes of the BioSC concept to date and developing ideas on how to exploit the potential of the BioSC research network and the BioSC strategy project funded by the state of North Rhine-Westphalia, even better.

The program also includes news at the core group level, including new core groups and leadership changes, as well as the presentation of new projects and the results of ongoing projects. The aim is to identify options for future cooperation, to deepen the understanding of the research topics and expertises of the individual core groups, and to share examples of successful interdisciplinary collaboration within the BioSC.

Registration is open until 26 March 2026!
