Six months education and networking at the largest Life Science event(s) in Austria

The Austrian Association of Molecular Life Sciences and Biotechnology (ÖGMBT) is pleased to announce that registration and abstract submission for our online 12^th Annual Meeting “Biomolecules in/for the 21^st Century” is open.

Do not miss the chance to register for six months education and networking at the largest Life Science event(s) in Austria. The layout in our virtual meeting room will enable interactivity in order to keep up the cherished spirit of learning from each other, exchanging ideas and giving each participant ample opportunities to discuss her /his research with colleagues, friends and senior scientists. All students and scientists from academia as well as from industry are welcome to take advantage of this unique opportunity.

If you register by July 31, 2020 and your residence is in Austria, you will receive the conference guide and a little surprise by surface mail.

You can contribute to the meeting by submitting your abstract for a short talk or “Science Flash” at one of the Life Science Tuesdays. Every young scientist who has submitted an abstract has the chance to win one of the Awards for Best Talk or Best Science Flash.

Below you can find a program outline & topics.

Our much appreciated exhibition will be an interactive VirtualExpo (with live chat and live video calls), which will accompany us starting from the kick-off event on throughout the period of all Life Science Tuesdays.

Following the Kick off event, our virtual meeting room will open its’ doors for bi-weekly Life Science Tuesdays, where we will spend an afternoon together focussing and interacting on a specific topic – centrepieces will be invited talks, short talks, “Science Flashes” in lieu of posters, workshops/webinars and the VirtualExpo. A separate Exhibitor Quiz will take place at every Life Science Tuesday- so you have 12 chances to win!
