Department of Biomedicine

The Infection & Inflammation (I&I) Young Researcher’s Forum is a panel of junior scientists (PhD students and Postdocs) within the Infection & Inflammation Research Theme that meets twice a month.

Every first Wednesday of the month, we practice presenting our research to a larger audience. We discuss recent findings and issues with experiments. The I&I Young Researcher’s Forum seeks to bring PhD students and Postdocs together to meet and network across labs to increase awareness about research being conducted within our research theme - paving the way for new collaborations and projects.

Every third Wednesday of the month, we hold a morning journal club. Here we share and discuss recent papers over a breakfast, with PI’s invited to provide their insights too. The aim is to broaden the scientific curiosity of all participants, increasing the social relation between groups and the awareness of what different groups work with.

Send an email to i.i.young@biomed.au.dk to receive the I&I newsletter with information about seminars and to be a part of the I&I young community by participating in the seminars and journal club.

Will you defend your PhD or host a special seminar and need some help with advertising?

Send an email to i.i.young@biomed.au and we will be happy to help create awareness.
