CUS & CUSO

The symposium entitled Forum Graduate Schools Infection and Immunity Biologie and Medecine has been held annually in June for the last 9 years and has been greated with enthousiasm by PhD students and research group leaders in microbial sciences. Since 2015 this important event was held as a joint activity with the CUSO doctoral program in Microbial Sciences. This forum is particularly appreciated by students who have the unique opportunity to present and discuss their findings to a wide audience. The format of this symposium consists in a succession of presentations given by invited speakers and PhD students selected by the committee. The topic focuses on Microbiology and Immunity. The presence during the entire day of the invited speakers offers the opportunity of very stimulating discussions.
