Palais Lenbach
Bioengineering Solutions for Biology and Medicine will take place in the historical Palais Lenbach. Built in 1887, it is one of the few buildings in central Munich that was not destroyed during the Second World War. Its original architecture, including elegant marble floors and stucco ceilings, is still intact.
To encourage active participation in the conference, preference will be given to potential attendees who submit abstracts.
There will be two dedicated poster sessions. Exceptional contributions will be selected for short talks or one-slide, one-minute flash talks preceding the poster sessions. Selections will be made by a committee that consists of the conference organizers and principal investigators from the Helmholtz Pioneer Campus.
