Democratizing science in Africa
In low-resource settings, it can be hard for scientists and clinicians to get access to advanced imaging equipment or specialized trainings on how to operate them. The West African Microscopy and Bio-Image Analysis Network (WAMBIAN) aims to democratize science. Peran Hayes, one of the co-founders, will talk about how their courses contribute to building an imaging infrastructure there – not only by building basic microscopes using off-the-shelf parts and 3D-printed components, but also by establishing a network for people to share their knowledge as well as resources and discuss ideas.

Max-Delbrück-Centrum für Molekulare Medizin (MDC)
Seit 30 Jahren gibt es das Max-Delbrück-Centrum in Berlin, es ist ein weltweit führendes biomedizinisches Forschungszentrum. Wir analysieren das System Mensch – die Grundlagen des Lebens von seinen kleinsten Bausteinen bis zu organübergreifenden Mechanismen. So wollen wir Krankheiten vorbeugen, sie möglichst früh erkennen und passgenau therapieren.
