BBL-CIBM-FCBG Research Day 2023

We are delighted to announce the BBL-CIBM-FCBG Research Day 2023 will be held on June 13 in the Auditoire Adolphe Franceschetti,  Centre Médical Universitaire (CMU), University of Geneva.

The CIBM  Center for Biomedical Imaging launched the first annual MRI research day in 2008 with aim of gathering MRI experts from Geneva and the Lemanic region. In 2010, the event included other members of the CIBM community with MRI infrastructure such as  the University of Geneva’s Brain and Behaviour Laboratory (BBL) and in 2018, the  Human Neuroscience Platform at the Foundation Campus Biotech Geneva (FCBG).

The one-day event is an opportunity to review the status of ongoing MRI projects and activities, share experience, difficulties and benefit from a unique exchange platform between physicists, physicians, and neuroscientists.

This year’s event will be concluded with a talk by Prof. Francois Lazeyras, Head of the CIBM MRI HUG UNIGE Clinical MR Imaging Section followed by a pre-retirement celebration gathering.

When registering, please take into account that there are two different tickets, one ticket for attending the talks and posters during the day and another ticket for the farewell gathering. You can choose one or both depending on your attendance.

Looking forward to seeing you soon.
