Symposium on Cellular Biophysics September 2023
If you are around, join us and get to know the IMPRS on Cellular Biophysics!
On the occasion of the annual program start for new PhD students, the IMPRS on Cellular Biophysics organizes a versatile symposium on research topics from the field of cellular biophysics in cooperation with the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics, Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and Frankfurt Institute of Advanced Studies. Join us in the lecture hall of the Max Planck Institute of Biophysics to get to know the Faculty, and learn about the different research topics within the IMPRS on Cellular Biophysics.
