Summer academy in Immunology (September 2011, Hannover)

The LISA Summer Academy in Immunology (September 2011) should allow excellent international students of life sciences to gain knowledge in "cutting-edge" inflammation research.

Lecturers will present their scientific work from those DFG-Collaborative Research Centres and will allow students to participate at practical demonstrations and lab rotations. Additionally, keynote lectures from international guest speakers (Y. Chien, T. Geijtenbeek, V. Julia, V. Kuchroo, F. Powrie, B. Reizis) will provide "state of the art" information on current research topics. International students will further present their own scientific work during poster sessions and will get the opportunity to meet German and international students currently enrolled in MHH PhD programs. Hands-on training will be provided during!

1 (obligatory) to 3 weeks of lab rotations (labs can be pre-selected based on personal interests). A limited number of travel grants is available, total costs including registration fee, housing and social activities are 100ˆ per week.
