Bringing life science professionals together and furthering skills in the scientific community are in SciLifeLab’s DNA. Our many events spanning a wide range of topics, present opportunities to develop your know-how and share your own experiences and network – sparking new ideas, as well as new collaborations. All events are free and open to everyone (unless otherwise stated), and we warmly welcome participants from industry, academia, healthcare, and beyond.
To support lifelong learning, the SciLifeLab Training Hub offers a vibrant community where instructors and learners come together to gain new skills and grow through shared knowledge. Explore all our courses, training, and educational offerings at training.scilifelab.se.
The third SciLifeLab COVID-19 seminar this spring starts with Lilly Schwieler, Associate Professor, Karolinska Institutet, Institution for Physiology and Pharmacology,
talking about Peripheral and central levels of kynurenine metabolites in COVID-19 patients. Elham Rostami, Associate Professor, Neurosurgery, Uppsala university, then continues the seminar with her talk on COVID19 and neurological complication.
EMBL-SciLifeLab workshop on the theme Planetary Biology The purpose of the workshop is to enhance connectivity between researchers at both, SciLifeLab and EMBL, to identify new collaboration ideas, and to promote joint technology and infrastructure resource development within Planetary Biology. This is one of many workshops that will follow the conclusion of the MoU between […]
Life science research is becoming increasingly dependent on data, and never before has so much data been generated today. The amount and complexity increase exponentially, and when this data becomes open to researchers around the world, more scientific discoveries are made possible. The rapid technological development in life sciences, combined with innovations in computing and […]
Simon Elsässer, Associate Professor at Karolinska Institutet, will talk about Exploring the dynamics of the pluripotent epigenome and lineage choice in development.
SciLifeLab Data Centre, ELIXIR Norway and ELIXIR Estonia have organised an online event exploring how Nordic countries handled omics data related to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

Tanja Slotte, Assoc. Prof. at Stockholm University, Sweden, will talk about Supergenes, sexual selection and self-fertilization - genomics of plant mating system evolution
Dr. Alex Swarbrick, Garvan Institute for Medical Research, Australia Location: Air/FireDate: 10.00 24th of May Abstract: A well-established principle in developmental biology is that cellular context governs cell fate, differentiation, proliferation and survival. There is emerging evidence that solid tumours are also complex cellular systems, or ecosystems, in which interactions between neoplastic, stromal and immune […]
Welcome to SciLifeLab Uppsala PhD&Postdoc seminars! We are very happy to host exciting talks by PhD students and Postdocs from a great variety of fields within SciLifeLab. Speaker 1: Hongxing Zhao, Researcher at Ulf Landegren Lab (Molecular Tools), Dept. of Immunology, Genetics and Pathology Title: Detection of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies from dried blood spots of vaccine individuals […]
In the frame of the “SciLifeLab Site Umeå / KBC Infrastructure Seminar Series”, the seminars will be organised every second Tuesday during spring 2022 in turn with IceLab Lunch Pitches. The seminars will be held in a hybrid format IRL in Glasburen, KBC, and online via Zoom. Take the chance to get information on facilities, possibilities […]
Presenter: Dr Marika Nestor, Department of Immunology, genetics and pathology, Uppsala University, Sweden Molecular radiotherapy is increasingly becoming a powerhouse in the field of cancer- and radiation therapy. By targeting a structure that is abundant on tumor cells but scarce in healthy tissues, a cancer-targeting molecule labeled with a therapeutic radionuclide can mediate the delivery […]
