Spring edition 2023

Add to calendar

The VIB Alumni Series is an initiative organized by VIB on the eve of major VIB conferences to stimulate the interaction between VIB alumni and the current VIB staff.

The second VIB Alumni Series evening will take place on Wednesday 21 June starting at 17h30 in the Bijloke in Ghent, preceding the VIB Conference on ‘Translational Research in Crops’. After a one-hour session of scientific/career talks by selected alumni, you are invited for a networking reception to (re)connect with your (former) colleagues.

Alumni of the center of Plant Systems Biology and all current VIB staff are all very welcome to join this networking evening for free. Note that the registration for the conference is separate from the registration for the Alumni Series evening.
