Utrecht Science Week has started!
This afternoon was the official opening of the Utrecht Science Week. A week full of lectures, debates, tours on groundbreaking science at the Utrecht Science Park.
The kick-off was done by Jan Henk van der Velden, Anton Pijpers, Wilma Scholte op Reimer and Arno Hoes. Followed by Peter Luijten‘s Utrecht Science Lecture as part of his farewell, with guest speakers Nico Van Den Berg, Karijn Suijkerbuijk, Marianna Tryfonidou, Tzviya Zeev-Ben-Mordehai.
Wonderful to see how valuable collaborations between different disciplines in life sciences lead to great successes.
We are looking forward to next week! Check out the programme and register.
Official kick-off collaboration platform ‘Utrecht Cancer’ during the Utrecht Science Week
The Utrecht Science Park houses a unique combination of knowledge institutes, (academic) hospitals and companies within one square kilometre. For quite some time, these partners have been working intensively together on pioneering research and developments in the treatment of cancer among children, adults and animals. On Monday 30 September, this unique collaboration on cancer research was empowered by the official launch of the ‘Utrecht Cancer’ collaboration platform, during the Utrecht Science Week.
