IMCBIO

Last week we organized our yearly courses dedicated to Ethic, philosophy and history of sciences for Master students of the Life Sciences Faculty of Strasbourg. This year again we were able to rely on our partners from EMBO from Heidelberg and from the Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Technology from Paris.

Our students were able to benfit from stimulating workshops and very interesting lectures on practicals topics as research integrity and how to publish reproductible results, but also more philosophical topics as how to reconstruct the structure of a philosophical argument or the impact of AI in sciences and medicine for example.

Yesterday the 3^rd of September we held our annual IMCBio Master Day, and what a sunny day it was! ☀️
We welcomed over 60 master 1 students from our associated specilaties of the Life Science master from the Life Science Faculty of our University!

Our master 2 students presented their internships they did during the summer as a part of their IMCBio master program. They showed their work with a 3 minutes flash presentation and answered a lot of interesting questions. Our students did their internship in the laboratories of our ITI IMCBio+ research environment and some of them had the opportunity to go abroad; from Austria 🇦🇹 to USA 🇺🇸, via Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 or Spain 🇪🇸!
After that we had a sunny lunch and poster session with many participants from our research environement, thanks to them! ☀️
And we finished the day with the presentation of all our associtated cluster research, other parts of our ITI IMCBio+: MitoCross, HepSYS, INRT and NetRNA. 🔬

EUR IMCBio wishes you a great summer! ☀️​🌈​

It’s going to be a busy one for us…
We’re planning to carry out a very serious scientific experiment known as ‘rest’. 😴​

(Don’t hesitate to tell us about your own experiments in this area – science advances through sharing! And we love postcards.)

We’ll be back in September with a great programme for 2024/2025. 🥳​

It starts on 3 September, with our Master Day!

The second edition of the IMCBio Summer School took place from June 25 to 28, 2024 at the Université de Strasbourg.

Organized by (marvellous) PhD students from IMCBio and with the support from colleagues from our five member institutes and the life science faculty, bachelor students from five different Universities had the opportunity to learn about our Master program.

The 3,5 day event included visiting IMCBio’s member institutes to perform small experiments, learn about scientific instruments and platforms like the microscopy photonic, the electronic microscopy, the flow cytometry, the plant microscopy, the mass spectrometry, the crystallography… 🔬

The invited students also greatly appreciated the opportunity to take part in round-table discussions with researchers at different levels and to hear about current research topics in Strasbourg.

In addition to experiencing IMCBio’s research, the students had the chance to tour the beautiful city of Strasbourg (and enjoy “tarts flambées”🥨​🍻​).

After this success, everyone is more than motivated to repeat the experience in 2025. Follow us here and on social networks to keep up to date.😉​
