Academia Meets Industry
The seminar series "Academia Meets Industry" aims at stimulating transdisciplinary discussions between university members and high profile industry managers. In the seminars, the practical perspective of the guest speakers encounters the education and research priorities of the university and thus allows an unprecedented dialogue on opportunities and risks of current and future research developments in the life sciences.
As they encounter the complexity of real world challenges from multiple perspectives throughout their study program, the series is of particular interest to LAS students. Especially, but not only, students from the Governance and Life Sciences Majors have the opportunity to get insight into topics that researchers and practitioners are currently dealing with at the interface between academia and industry. Students are encouraged to critically reflect upon societal expectations, governmental responsibilities, commercial constraints, and the interests the different stakeholders have.
The next Academia meets Industry Seminar is on January 28, 2019
With his talk "RNA, 3 D Printing and Mass Data: Not a vision but reality" Dr. Ingmar Hoerr, MBA (Supervisory Board Chairman of CureVac AG will provide the input for the upcoming Academia meets Industry Seminar. The event will be moderated by Dr. med. Helmut Laaff.
