CECAD Postdoctoral Seminar Series

Date: Friday, March 2nd, 2012 at 4pm
Venue: Institute for Genetics, Zülpicher Str. 47a, Lecture Hall 4th floor.

The CECAD postdoctoral committee would like to invite interested parties to the first seminar in their new initiative, the CECAD career development seminar series.

The first seminar will be entitled "How to start my first lab". The lecture will feature five successful new and upcoming group leaders to share their experiences and advice for the transitional process from postdoc to group leader.

The seminar is ideal for those hoping to follow an academic track, but is also of general interest to all those hoping to understand the field of science in general.

Invited speakers:

• Dr. Michael Lammers
  CECAD at the Institute for Genetics, Cologne
• Dr. Nikoletta Papadopolou
  Institute of Medical Microbiology, Immunology and Hygiene, Cologne
• 
Dr. Andrew Pospisilik
  MPI of Immunobiology and Epigenetics, Freiburg
• Dr. Björn Schumacher

  CECAD at the Institute for Genetics, Cologne
• Dr. Sara Wickström
  MPI for Biology of Ageing, Cologne

The talk will be followed by cheese and wine to give those who are interested the time for personal discussion with the speakers....

We especially encourage postdocs and PhDs to take part. It will be an interactive seminar, with the opportunity to ask questions, both in the seminar and during post-seminar wine and cheese networking session.
