Welcome

The International Master in Biomedical Sciences (IMBS) and the Milstein-Köhler Binational PhD Program welcomes you to the

VI INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS IN TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE.

​

As in previous congresses, the scientific program will include speakers from Universidad de Buenos Aires, University of Freiburg and special guests, who will present the latest developments and approaches in the translational medicine areas, such as Pharmacology, Toxicology, Pathophysiology, Oncology, Microbiology and Cellular and Molecular Biology.

​

In this new edition we are pleased to invite you to the award ceremony of the honorary doctorate Prof. Dr. Thomas Christian Südhof, awarded Nobel Prize in Phisiology or Medicine in 2013 for his work in vesicle trafficking.

​

Our congress will also provide a great opportunity for IMBS or PhD students and young scientists to show their latest work in the poster session, where the most outstanding presentations will be awarded. 

​

We’re looking forward sharing with you this event,

 

Sincerely
