FrontiersInBiomedicine

Le cycle de séminaires des Frontiers in Biomedicine (anciennement "Frontiers in Biology"), initié par la Faculté de médecine en 2003, a pour but de faire le lien entre médecine et sciences fondamentales à travers une série de conférences annuelles. Initialement invité-es par chaque département facultaire, ce sont maintenant les centres facultaires qui invitent les intervenant-es. De renommée mondiale, actifs et actives dans le domaine des sciences de la médecine, ils et elles sont invité-es à présenter leur travail à un large public scientifique et médical. Les conférences sont données en anglais.

The Frontiers in Biomedicine (initially "Frontiers in Biology") lecture series was initiated in 2003 at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva. The series aims at bridging the gap between medicine and basic sciences through a cycle of seminars every year. Speakers were initially invited by each department, but are now hosted by the faculty centers. These world-class guests from all domains of the basic medical sciences and/or translational medicine are invited to present broadly accessible lectures to a non-specialist scientific audience. Lectures are given in English.
