DDc Lunch Retreats
DRESDEN-concept (DDc) started in 2021 the new format DDc Lunch Retreat.
Future-oriented topics with a high scientific potential that have been identified and proposed by the Scientific Area Committees (SACs) and/or the DDc Executive Board, will be shortly presented by key scientists to interested DDc members in order to get feedback and to sound out cooperation possibilities.
The DDc Lunch Retreats will continue in 2023 and will be held quarterly.
Upcoming DDc Lunch Retreat
The next DDc Lunch Retreat is coming up on March 16 from noon to 1:00 p.m.
Our 21st DDc Lunch Retreat addresses the topic “Magnetically-driven microrobots for biomedical applications“. We are looking forward to an interesting retreat with DRESDEN-concept Research Group Leader
- Dr. Mariana Medina-Sánchez (Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden [IFW] and B CUBE – Center for Molecular Bioengineering at TU Dresden)
and the Moderator Dr. Azaam Aziz (Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research Dresden [IFW]).
The meeting will be held in English as a videoconference (Zoom). All DDc-scientists are cordially invited to join.
Please register by following the link below. You will receive the link to the videoconference with the registration
