The Doctorate Day (D.Day) is an annual conference organized by the Association of PhD students and Assistants (ADAS) of the Faculty of Biology and Medicine-FBM of the University of Lausanne, and supported by the Doctoral School.
The event aims to connect researchers from the different departments of the faculty and, develop Ph.D. student interactions, highlight recent scientific contributions, and illustrate the wide variety of research conducted at FBM.
It is a one-day conference organized by Ph.D students for the scientific community. During the day, invited keynote speakers present their research on various topics, and PhD students are given the opportunity to share and present their work in different formats: short talks, elevator pitches, and posters. At D.Day you have the chance to present your work and discover what your neighbors are up to! Students are encouraged to participate with either talks or posters, and by attending lectures of internationally renowned scientists. Check the program of our previous D.Days to get an idea!

Découvrez les multiples aspects des technologies génétiques lors de nos séances de dialogue et posez vos questions aux spécialistes. Toutes les personnes intéressées sont les bienvenues! La participation est gratuite.
Les séances de dialogue sont organisées par le Forum Recherche génétique avec le soutien de l’Office fédéral de l’environnement (OFEV).
Le dodo, le mammouth, le pigeon migrateur, le tigre de Tasmanie – ils font tous partie des centaines d’espèces animales connues qui ont disparu depuis l’arrivée de l’homme et son évolution culturelle et technologique. Pourtant, il existe aujourd’hui des entreprises et des organisations qui souhaitent faire revenir ces espèces, notamment à l’aide des technologies génétiques et de la médecine reproductive. Dans quelle mesure ces projets sont-ils réalistes? Quels avantages et quels risques peuvent-ils présenter pour la protection des espèces ? Et que disent-ils de notre relation avec la nature? Nous discuterons de ces questions et d’autres sur la base du livre «Faire revivre des espèces disparues?» avec les deux auteurs et d’autres spécialistes.
Intervenants: Nadir Alvarez, Muséum cantonal des sciences naturelles de Lausanne Lionel Cavin, Muséum d’histoire naturelle de Genève Bernard Baertschi, Université de Genève Modération: Cécile Guerin
La séance se déroulera à Lausanne, au Palais de la Rumine, sous forme hybride: une participation est possible soit sur place, soit virtuellement. La langue de la séance est le français. Inscription jusqu’au 19 avril 2023
[BC]2 is organized in Basel as an in-person conference – with a virtual component – to enjoy great science together, network and develop relationships during social activities. All speakers and oral presenters will be presenting live, in-person at the congress venue. The [BC]2 Scientific Committee has put together a diverse programme featuring inspiring keynote lectures by international experts, scientific presentations from selected abstracts, tutorials and workshops to foster hands-on capabilities and interactive poster sessions together with networking activities to refresh the mind and connect with peers in a friendly atmosphere!
For participants who are unable to travel or do not wish to travel for environmental reasons, there is the possibility to register as a virtual participant. Virtual participation only includes access to the opening keynote lecture on 11 September and the conference sessions on 12 and 13 September (live streamed, not recorded) and access to the meeting’s virtual poster platform, it does not include access to the pre-conference workshops and tutorials.

Visit our websitefor more information on how to submit. 2) Apply for a talk in our special session onindustry-academia collaborations. This session is dedicated to researchers and companies who wish to share the results of such joint projects and interdisciplinary collaborations.
This event focuses on the striking capacity to self-organise that is intrinsic to all living matter. How does such biological order emerge from chaos? Through the 2023 CIG Symposium “Emergence of Order Across Biological Scales” we will explore and discuss the most recent discoveries about how life is structured across scales, from molecules to cells and all the way to organisms and whole populations.
4 short talks (15mn + 5mn for questions) are scheduled. Speakers will be selected from the pool of submitted abstracts. !!! to submit an abstract, sign in after registration and upload it by April 30, 2023 !!!
