Seminar series iDN

Colloquium of iDN

 

In the iDN colloquium, we have internal and external speakers from different fields of neurobiology.

This colloquium is jointly organised by the neurobiology groups from of the iDN at Johannes Gutenberg - University Mainz.

 

The colloquium takes place every second Thursday 12 - 14h.

The seminars are given in English.
