6th Annual CMBI Meeting Innsbruck 2016

On March 3rd and 4th, the CMBI held its 6th annual joint meeting in Gnadenwald focusing on drugs and biotechnology, proteomics and metabolomics, protein structure, signaling, disease and stress mechanisms. About 120 – mostly young – researchers from CMBI member labs gathered in order to share their newest Life Science findings in more than 70 oral and poster presentations and to initiate discussion and interaction. Three impressive, high-profile plenary speakers, Christian Griesinger (MPI Göttingen), Remco Sprangers (MPI Tübingen), Almut Schulze (Uni Würzburg), and an inspiring Introduction Lecture held by the newly appointed faculty member Frank Edenhofer complemented the program. As in previous years, three prizes were selected with the help of the plenary speakers for the best young scientists’ conference presentations. Two poster prizes were awarded to Marina Frener (Institute for Organic Chemistry) and Armin Wilfinger (Institute of Molecular Biology). The award for the best short talk was given to Julia Wunderer (Institute of Zoology).
