Non-SCS events

Chirality is omnipresent in the universe and in particular significant in the biomolecular world. But it also encompasses new materials and novel physical effects. Beyond the classical issues of molecular chirality, the conference will address materials science topics and new phenomena involving chirality, such as molecular machines, nanoparticles, organic electronics, liquid crystals, electron spin filtering and selective interactions with light.

The main objective of this user workshop is to foster knowledge exchange and collaboration among experts from multiple research fields, related to the N₂O cycle. This includes research topics like advanced analytical methods, reaction kinetics and theory of isotope effects of N₂O up to data inter-pretation by applying up-to-date modelling approaches. The following scientific questions will be ad-dressed:

Which analytical techniques should I select for my experiment?

Provide information on state of the art techniques, pros and cons and their benchmark performance.

What are the reaction mechanisms responsible for N₂O production / destruction?

Provide know-how on reaction pathways, intermediates and associated isotope fractionation effects.

Which experimental design/ modelling approach will answer my research questions? 

Provide an overview on natural abundance and ¹⁵N tracer techniques as well as modelling approaches.

«Cell Sourcing and Stem Cells for Drug Development»

Primary and stem cells are becoming important sources for the generation of organotypic tissue models used in many biopharmaceutical applications, regenerative medicine, disease modelling and drug discovery. They promise to revolutionise the drug discovery process at all stages, from target identification through to toxicology studies.

This event has successfully fostered the relationship between Life Sciences communities in Switzerland and China in the past two years and continues to be the key Sino-Swiss life sciences event.
This year's Forum features four key note speakers tackling various topics focusing on the future of healthcare. In fact, digitalization is taking all industries by storm and even healthcare will be world dominated by data and controlled by individual patients.

​The 4th Plastics Update Conference informs on state-of-the-art thinking and proposes technology that can make a difference to transform industry and engage ensuring humanity can continue to enjoy the benefits of planet and plastics in a sustainable way.

Plastics Innovation Competence Center (PICC) invites you to attend the Plastics Update 2019 Conference. ​​International speakers are highlighting the main ambitions of the EU strategy and present implementable actions to address the challenges for realizing a sustainable circular economy for plastics.

Three topics are expanded upon:
- Design for Recycle,
- Biomass-based Plastics, 
- Innovative Plastics. 

Mitglieder unserer Themenplattform für Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) und weitere führende Fachleute haben ihre Empfehlungen für eine Schweizer KI-Strategie publiziert. Sie plädieren für eine intensivere Nutzung der Technologie und die Schaffung nationaler Datenplattformen, da Daten eine Voraussetzung für leistungsfähige Algorithmen sind. Ohne entsprechende Anstrengungen riskiert die Schweiz, den Anschluss bei dieser zukunftsweisenden Technologie zu verlieren. Gerne stellen Ihnen zwei Autoren das Whitepaper im Rahmen der Vernissage persönlich vor:
- Dr. Alessandro Curioni, Director IBM Research, Präsident TPF Künstliche Intelligenz (auf Englisch)
- Prof. Dr. Ernst Hafen, ETH Zürich, Präsident der Verwaltung der MIDATA Genossenschaft

The aim of this international event is to learn more about the latest advances in the field of chemical biology and to foster an open and dynamic dialogue amongst the scientists conducting this exciting research.

Due to the situation related to the Corona virus, the event is cancelled.

An der ScienceComm'20 wird der Fokus auf Networking, Interaktion und Partizipation gelegt. Wir wollen - hoffentlich nach Corona! - einander kennenlernen und voneinander lernen. Die 9. ScienceComm folgt dem Motto "Emotion in Science is..."

TEDD Annual Meeting brings together experts from diverse fields with a shared interest in advanced 3D models. Join us for this meeting to celebrate another fruitful collaboration year with the new perspectives ahead.
