The MD-PhD programme of UNIL/EPFL will organize its seventh retreat on Thursday, November 11, 2021 at the Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne. The annual retreat is a mandatory event and constitutes the minimal requirement for Swiss MD-PhD programme, as defined by the Swiss Academy of Medical Sciences (SAMS).
The retreat encourages MD-PhD students and candidates to communicate beyond their immediate research environment and provides an opportunity to meet with former students, thesis directors and faculty members involved in the Lausanne UNIL/EPFL MD-PhD programme.
Posters of all MD-PhD students will be presented and six posters will be selected for oral presentations. Awards will be given for the best presentation and the best poster.
We are delighted to welcome several keynote speakers such as Prof. Ivan Stamenkovic, Prof. Tatiana Petrova, Prof. Lukas Neukomm and Dr Nadja Chevalier. They will share their experience in promoting science in the medical realm with the audience.
Luncheon is offered. For organizational reasons we recommend registration as soon as possible by sending back the attached form duly filled in to mdphd@unil.ch.
Registration deadline: October 15, 2021
We look forward to welcoming you in Lausanne.
Sincerely,
For the MD-PhD Commission UNIL/EPFL
