Learning objectiveWeekly seminar about cutting edge topics in immunology and infection biology. Internationally renowned experts present their current research followed by an open discussion.
The aim of this course is to confront students with current research topics and with scientific presentation. The course offers the opportunity to gain in depth knowledge about diverse topics which are often only briefly touched in the concept courses and to engage in discussion with experts in the field.
ContentImmunology and infection biology.
The specific topics are variable and depend each semester on the list of invited experts.
Lecture notesCurrent research data (often not yet published) are presented in this seminar series. There is no script and we are not allowed to record or distribute the contents of the seminars. Thus, the ability of students to extract the most relevant points of each seminar is promoted, which is an important skill for the future attendance of scientific meetings.
LiteratureOften parts of the presented seminars have already been published by the respective speakers and the respective primary research can be retrieved from scientific journals.
