Open Seminar

Join us for the open morning seminar of the Emerging Wings symposium, featuring a joint lecture by Nobel Laureates Eric F. Wieschaus and Christiane Nüsslein-Volhard. Their groundbreaking work using the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, revealed fundamental genes that control how embryos develop - discoveries that continue to influence biology and medicine today.

In their shared lecture, the speakers will reflect on curiosity-driven research, mentorship, and the scientific journey, offering inspiration to students and researchers at all career stages.

The seminar will be followed by a panel discussion, where early-career researchers can engage directly with the Nobel Laureates on topics such as scientific careers, mentorship, and life in research.

Free and open to all - 500 seats available
