Hi All
If you are in one of the 66 International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology member states (which includes many if not most countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia) and wish to organise a meeting on the life sciences - which could include molecular biology, reagent production, diagnostics or other topics of interest to the Reclone network, check out the call below! Deadline 28 Feb 2023.
Events can be practical workshops and trainings as well as conferences and networking meetings.
I’d be keen to support efforts but the UK is not a member so we’d need a lead or group of people to lead from the member states.
