Events
The MRCRM arranges seminars, conferences and other events for the scientific community. These events will serve as a platform for scientific replenishment and be a place to meet and discuss ongoing research activities.
Our seminar series is a cornerstone of knowledge-sharing within our research community. It is a platform for engaging discussions and the exchange of ideas of the latest advancements in regenerative medicine.
MRCRM organizes different events:
- The "How to..." series - a concept that encourages speakers to share their knowledge and expertise so that others can learn from it.
- The Annual International Meeting on Regenerative Medicine featuring international invited speakers
- Annual Mini Symposium featuring local researchers and students
- The Mohn Synergy Symposium series
- UniStem Day - a one-day dissemination event for local high-school students
