-----------

A workshop targeting graduates and undergraduates, and dedicated to Marine
Biotechnology, will be held in Genoa (Italy) on October 28th 2011. The event
occurs in the frame of the 7FP SPECIAL project and of the 2011 Genoa Science
Festival.

The Open day will be a unique opportunity for grads/undergrads to meet
scientists and collaborating PhD students that work in this exciting field
and cut across a broad range of disciplines (Marine Biology, Marine Natural
Products, Biopolymers, Anticancer Research, Invertebrate Aquaculture,
Nanobiotechnology...).

The day will be structured in a very informal way to promote networking and
the direct interaction between undergrads/grads, PhD students and primary
investigators. Undergrads/grads may present their work as a poster and are
encouraged to bring along cv and any other material they deem relevant to
introduce themselves.

Three key-notes will be presented by Prof. Rui L. Reis (University of Minho
­ Portugal, biopolymers), Prof. Werner Müller (University of Mainz ­
Germany, marine nanobiotechnology) and Dr. Andrea Alimonti (Atrahasis srl ­
Italy, anticancer approaches). Additional oral presentations and
demonstrations by PhD students from the project will be given in the
afternoon session. The entire SPECIAL consortium will attend. All
contributions, including posters, will become part of the workshop
e-proceedings.

THERE IS NO REGISTRATION FEE. YET, REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED AND SHALL BE
DONE BY OCTOBER 10th 2011.

Genoa may be easily reached by several of low-cost flights. Two hostels and
many cheap hotels and B&B are available for students travelling on a low
budget. A simple buffet will be given during the Open day. The Genoa Science
Festival, the local food and wines and the lively city night scene will
perfectly complement your stay!
