„Biomolecules for the 21^st Century“, the 12th ÖGMBT Annual Meeting, should have taken place in Graz. However, it turned out as the first online meeting of ÖGMBT and a challenge for all, but as in the live meetings before, we succeeded to connect researchers, students and corporate representatives to share their knowledge and visions.

One highlight was the Life Science Awards Austria ceremony, where the brightest young researchers received the prestigious awards for their research efforts.

BEST POSTER & BEST TALK WINNER

Young professionals and early-stage researchers get the opportunity to present their research results as short talks and science flashes at this second online Meeting.
