Like every year, the UPF Department of Medicine and Life Sciences (MELIS-UPF) organizes its annual get together, an event that covers the span of topics studied at the department, says the new department director, Jordi Garcia-Ojalvo. The 2022 MELIS-UPF Biomedical Research Symposium will take place on October 21 in the Auditorium of the Barcelona Biomedical Research Park (PRBB).
The symposium is free and open to everyone, and PRBB residents are specially encouraged to participate. You can register here.
