On October 29, we will host a dual presentation with Dr. Ina Stelzer and Associate Professor Brice Gaudillière. At the Stanford School of Medicine Clinical Gaudillière laboratory, Ina and Brice have developed a groundbreaking multi-omics approach to track the maternal metabolome, proteome and immunome to predict exact labor onset. Estimating the time of delivery is […]
For our next Call4Help session we are organizing a tool-presentation seminar about CellPose, a generalist algorithm for cell and nuclei segmentation. CellPose is a deep learning-based segmentation method trained on a wide range of image types. It can be applied to both 2D and 3D images. During this seminar we will explore different ways to […]

Stephan Pless, PhD Professor of Molecular and Cellular PharmacologyUniversity of Copenhagen, Denmark The Pless lab is interested in the molecular function and pharmacology of ion channels. These complex membrane proteins regulate cellular excitability by controlling the flux of ions across cell membranes in response to a diverse set of stimuli. Their dysfunction is associated with numerous diseases, resulting […]
Kelly Sheehan-Rooney, Head of the Fellowship Programme at EMBO, will give an overview of the eligibility and evaluation criteria of EMBO’s Postdoctoral Fellowships, Scientific Exchange Grants, and the New Venture Fellowships. She will also give some top tips for grant writing, and an insight into her career move from academic research to international research development. […]
