Sit in on other lectures:
Professors Saint-Geniez and Bielenberg are here in connection with the course in Cancer-Related Vascular Biology February 18-22, and for those who are interested, it is possible to sit in on other of their lectures the 18thand 19thwithout being enrolled to the course. You can see their lectures in this link. If you wish to sit in, please contact coordinator Elisabeth.wik@uib.no(limited seats).
Of general interest, we can particularly recommend the lecture at 14.00-15.00 Tuesday Feb. 19th, titled: «The “Science” of Branding; the value of a core message«. This aims to provide valuable and readily implementable tools to increase individual (students, researchers, PIs) marketability through personal branding, and highlight unique and special features that would particularly appeal to a potential recruiter or collaborator. Regarding the other lectures, professor Saint-Geniez’ lectures will be of particular interest to our ophthalmology environment, and Professor Bielenberg’s lectures will be of interest to all cancer researchers.
