Young Scientists get-together at the Faculty of Medicine

Change the Universe...

                                  ...Sending out Satellites 

On September 26^th, 2024, we will continue our journey to change the universe of research at the Faculty of Medicine at the RWTH Aachen University. Young scientists are invited to get together, exchange their experience in science and present some of their work. This time we want to send out satellites to the international but close universities of Maastricht and Liège. 

We would be happy if this get-together resulted in long-lasting connections between the young scientists of the faculty. 

When and where?
Thursday, September 26th, 15:30 – 19:30 at CT² (Forckenbeckstraße 71, 52074 Aachen) 

Who?
The afternoon addresses early career researchers (PostDocs and interns, PhD-, MD- and master students) of RWTH, UK Aachen as well as young scientists of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Liège and Faculty of Health, Medicine and Life Sciences of the University of Maastricht. However, of course all members of the Faculty of Medicine of the RWTH Aachen University are welcome to join us.
