Life Sciences Seminar Series

Life Sciences Seminar Series

Faculties of Life Sciences at Masaryk University have joined to host an external seminar series of luminary scientist. MU LSS mainly focuses on the currently growing fields which combine modern methods of biophysics, computational modeling, imaging, biochemistry, and molecular biology with “more classical” disciplines such as microbiology, cell biology, physiology, genetics, toxicology, developmental and evolutionary biology and medicine.

The seminars are held at the University Campus (A11/132) on Thursday afternoon from 16:00 followed by an open reception in front of the lecture room. The most prestigious speakers are invited to give a lecture within Mendel Lectures, which are held in the Refectory of Augustinian Abbey at Mendel square from 17:00. 


You are cordially invited to attend the MU Life Sciences Seminar Series in 2017!

Detailed information about the foregoing seminars can be found in Archive.
