YSF Programme
Overview
The 22nd FEBS Young Scientists' Forum (YSF 2023) will start on Thursday July 6th, 2023 with an inspiring opening lecture and a welcome dinner. The scientific programme over the following days will provide opportunities for all participants to present their research as oral presentations and/or posters, and we are also looking forward to fascinating talks from the keynote speakers. In addition, for part of Friday July 7th, 'Careers Skills' sessions will provide advice on key skills and early-career options. Over the course of the YSF there will be plenty of opportunities for participants to enjoy making new international connections and getting to know each other. The YSF will close on Saturday July 8th, 2023, when we will transfer to the FEBS Congress.
The preliminary programme for the YSF 2023 is set out below, details will be provided subsequently.
