Diversity, Identity & Fate at Biomedical Frontiers

In line with our commitment to diversity and inclusivity, TRR 274 is proud to sponsor for the second time the “Diversity, Identity & Fate at Biomedical Frontiers” event, co-organized by Florence Bareyre (Project C03).

This event is open to everyone and offers a unique opportunity to network and engage in discussions on cutting-edge research, as well as the critical topic of diversity in science. It is a chance for researchers from all cultural backgrounds and career stages to come together, share ideas, and explore how diversity shapes and enriches the scientific community.

15:00 -16:30  Scientific program

The BMC Diversity Initiative has invited three distinguished Munich-based scientists to present their current research in translational optoacoustics (Miguel Pleitez), lipid metabolism and metabolic diseases (Susanna Hofmann), and oncolytic virus-based cancer immunotherapeutics (Jennifer Altomonte). They will also share insights into the key experiences and challenges that have defined their careers in research. Meet-the-speaker sessions following the talks will offer opportunities for questions and open discussion.
