SFBMEc Avenir

Early career pre-conference of the 2023 meeting

As part of the SFBMEc conference, the PhD students and post-docotoral researchers of SFBMEc are organising a session specially dedicated to their fellow PhDs and post-docs on Thursday morning, 16th November. During this session, you will have the opportunity to share your work, listen to the presentations by other young researchers, and chat with two young researchers during a coffee break (see program below).

To facilitate your attendance, this half-day event is completely free, however, registration is mandatory. Please confirm your participation in SFBMEc Avenir by sending us an email (claire.masson@efs.sante.fr). 

We would like to give you the opportunity to do an oral presentation of your research project, therefore, if you would like your submitted abstract to be selected for an oral presentation at this half-day event, don't forget to include it in your registration request email.

Moreover, the SFBMEc Avenir organizing committee will also select 6 abstracts for oral presentations in this particular session from the abstracts that will not be selected for presentation at the main conference.

Focus on career development :

The aim of SFBMEc Avenir is to help you prepare for your future career.  In this regard, we have invited 2 young and dynamic researchers to discuss their career paths and share their experiences with you. 

Elisabete Silva obtained her PhD in oncology in 2019 and joined the start-up BrightSens Diagnostics the year it was founded in 2022. 

Naël Osmani, an expert in cell adhesion and metastatic processes, obtained his PhD in 2008 and, after having acquired a long postdoctoral experience in various laboratories, was recruited as an Assistant Researcher at INSERM in 2020. 

 This half-day event is an opportunity for everyone to exchange ideas and learn more about phD and its amazing prospects. We look forward to seeing you there!
