  9^th Young Researchers Workshop
  Chairs: S. Apers, R. Fürst
  Price: 15 EUR
  PROGRAM >>

This special workshop for young researchers offers the unique opportunity to present own data and to discuss these data, including practical problems during the daily lab work, in a free and relaxed atmosphere. Special emphasis is laid on the problem-solving discussion between all participants.

The YRW is mainly for PhD students, but presentations by undergraduate students and post-docs within their first year will also be considered.

The YRW will start with an impulse lecture by a young but established scientist emphasizing important aspects of research, such as troubleshooting or good practices in planning and making selections and decisions (e.g. the right assay system). The main part of the afternoon will be dedicated to short lectures on medicinal plant and natural products research. A closing discussion will end up the session.

Only high-quality abstracts can be considered for oral presentations. All young scientists presenting a short lecture during the YRW are asked to contribute these data also as a poster during the main poster sessions. The abstracts of oral YRW presentations will be covered within a special section in the PLANTA MEDICA conference issue.

The 4 best presentations will be awarded with two categories of prizes, supported by Bionorica SE. Two young investigators will each receive a prize money of 200 EUR and will get the great chance to give their presentation also in a special slot of the main congress. Two further young investigators will receive a prize money of 100 EUR each.

These workshops are covered within a special section in the PLANTA MEDICA conference issue.
