CeMM Scientific Recess 2019

CeMM Scientific Recess 2019

From February 18-20, 2019, the annual Scientific Recess of CeMM with representatives from each research group and our facilities took place in Waidhofen a.d. Ybbs.

Thank you to the organizers Andreas Villunger and Christoph Binder and to all the participants from CeMM and the Adjunct groups, who contributed with their presentations of new ideas and with lively discussions to a successful meeting.

The overall topic of the 2019 recess was to identify translational opportunities for the next 5 years, agree on emerging topics and themes, and to look for new possibilities for interactions within CeMM.

We thank our special guest Michael Sixt (IST Austria) who not only gave an interesting talk about “Dendritic Cell Migration for Immunity” but also stayed with us for two full days and provided valuable input to project ideas. And we very much appreciated the contribution of Markus Zeitlinger (MedUniVienna) who presented an overview on clinical trial management and was available for an intensive question and answer session.
