Life Science Seminars Series

Researchers both from Linköping University and from other universities in Sweden present their research to other researchers. The aim is to contribute to a better network within Life Science.

The time for the Life Science seminars is 15:30-16:30 in Thursdays (all presentations are given in English)

Unless otherwise indicated, the lecture is in the "Eken" lecture room (US-campus, close to Entrance 65)
