VIB Alumni Series
Autumn edition 2023
Add to calendarThe VIB Alumni Series is an initiative organized by VIB on the eve of major VIB conferences to stimulate the interaction between VIB alumni and the current VIB staff.
The third VIB Alumni Series evening will take place on Monday 13 November starting at 17h30 in the Promotiehallen in Leuven, preceding the VIB Conference on ‘Periphery-brain Interplay and CNS Disease’. After a one-hour session of scientific/career talks by selected alumni, you are invited for a networking reception to (re)connect with your (former) colleagues.
Alumni of the center for Inflammation Research (IRC), center for Brain & Disease Research, center for Molecular Neurology and all current VIB staff are all very welcome to join this networking evening for free. Note that the registration for the conference is separate from the registration for the Alumni Series evening.
