CeMM Scientific Advisory Board Meeting 2019
We thank the Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) Members Carl-Henrik Heldin (Uppsala University and Chairman of the Board of the Nobel Foundation), Emmanuelle Charpentier (MPI Berlin), Janet Kelso (MPI Leipzig), Hidde Ploegh (Harvard University) and Richard Flavell (Yale University) for visiting CeMM, the Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences from May 19-22, 2019, for listening to more than 30 talks, and for their critical feedback and advice, which is highly appreciated and an important source of motivation for the entire Institute.
The overall set-up of the SAB meeting was similar to previous years, which means we had presentations of PhD Students and PostDocs of every research group, and on the second day there were 1:1 meetings with Principal Investigators and Management. We asked our new Adjunct Principal Investigators who joined in Autumn 2018 to introduce themselves and their research focus, and there was also an update on CeMM’s business and tech transfer activities, as well as an introduction to the virtual reality holodeck project of the Menche group.
We are looking forward to the written SAB report, and are going to publish the general comments as part of the next research report, as we did in previous years.
On Monday evening, we had the pleasure to visit the Ephesos Museum in the Imperial Palace with our guests, and we thank its Director Georg Plattner for an exclusive tour and introduction to the valuable collection, which we enjoyed very much.

And we would especially like to thank City Councillor Veronica Kaup-Hasler and her team, for hosting us for a great SAB Dinner with Stakeholders and CeMM Friends at the Vienna City Hall on Tuesday. It was a real pleasure and privilege to be able to spend an evening in the Wappensaal (coat of arms hall).
