Introduction

In the past years stem cell research has gained further traction in the development of more complex in vitro (disease) models as well as in clinical trials and therapeutic applications. Especially in the field of neuroscience, stem cell-based models are becoming increasingly important not only for ethical reasons (3Rs) but also because of their human relevance and scalability.

Scope Tübingen, Germany

Basic Principles of Science Communication (Dr. Markus Gottschling)

Communicating your own research in an understandable and vivid way is one of the biggest challenges for you as scientists. This workshop provides the basics to successfully master this challenge:

• formats and styles of science communication
• rhetorical strategies, storytelling and audience-orientation
• authenticity and performance

Get your own science communication started with in-depth discussions and hands-on exercises from a rhetorical point of view.

 

Technology Transfer (Dr. Patrick Wunderlich & Dr. Dennis de Coninck)

Challenge your knowledge about intellectual property, patents and entrepreneurship! Do you know how to commercialize your research? Participate in our fun, interactive quiz and learn how this may impact your career!
