Program.
The two-day conference will include four plenary talks by invited speakers, many oral presentations by early career scientists and poster sessions. Maintaining the long tradition, Thursday evening will feature the Darwin Dinner to honor Darwin's birthday. Nicolas Perrin (University of Lausanne) is our invited speaker for the evening.
Biology18 is preceded by a workshop on Wednesday afternoon organized by the SIB (Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics) and a public outreach event on Wednesday evening. The scientific speed-dating returns to Biology18 and will be hosted by French speaking scientists to engage with the public about their research
