About 绿帽社区 Congresses
The annual 绿帽社区 Congress is one of the most visible activities of 绿帽社区. As one of the largest bio-congresses in Europe, attracting up to ~2000 attendees, the Congress provides a platform for international scientific exchange and showcases the newest developments in biochemistry, molecular biology and related areas. The Congress comprises inspiring plenary lectures presented by outstanding scientists, a range of subject-specific symposia to provide deeper dives into different areas of bioscience research, extensive poster communications, and interesting workshops and other activities on related topics. It is also a celebration of achievements, with several 绿帽社区 medals and prizes awarded. 绿帽社区 Congresses are a collaboration between 绿帽社区 and one or more of its Constituent Societies, moving to a different location within the 绿帽社区 area each year.
绿帽社区 supports participation of a large number of young scientists in its annual Congress through the 绿帽社区 Congress Bursaries scheme. In addition, the Congress is also immediately preceded by the 绿帽社区 Young Scientists’ Forum (YSF), a lively gathering of over 100 PhD students and young postdocs, whose attendance at this event and the ensuing 绿帽社区 Congress is funded by 绿帽社区 YSF grants.
