OIST Mini Symposia 2021/2022

The category “OIST Mini Symposia” – a small-scale symposium with the duration of 2-3 days – addresses a specific scientific theme or topic, focusing on current trends and recent findings in the field of interest. Unlike OIST Workshops, talks at the Mini Symposia can be highly technical and specific for the field of research of the organizing unit.

We ask for you understanding that the dates are subject to change due to the the current COVID-19 situation.
