EVENTS

Winter Meeting in Berlin

Winter Meeting in Berlin
On 9th January, the SPP Winter Meeting took place in Berlin at the Landesvertretung Baden-Württemberg, with over 50 representatives from 16 sub-projects in attendance.

Prof Fabian Bamberg, the programme coordinator, extended a warm welcome to all. Dr Carmen Steinborn, representing the project coordination team, provided updates on recent activities, followed by presentations from each sub-project’s representatives presenting their latest progress.

The keynote lecture, titled “Vom ‘Medical Need’ zur Innovation am Patientenbett – Neue Wege in der Medizinischen Translation”, was delivered by Prof Ralf Kindervater from BIOPRO Baden-Württemberg. He emphasised the challenges of medical translation and stressed the importance of collaboration among stakeholders.

The meeting concluded with insights into upcoming events from the programme coordination team and a summary by Prof Bamberg. Attendees also enjoyed networking opportunities during the evening event, fostering deeper discussions on scientific and non-scientific topics.

Check out the Radiomics website for a full recap and explore the event’s picture gallery.

The presentations given are available for download by members of the sub-projects in the website’s designated members’ area.
