ParaFrap is organizing the ParaFrap Next Generation in Parasitology Workshop for the first time in 2024. It aims to support the new generation of European parasitologists in developing their collaboration networks and raising awareness about funding opportunities. This inaugural edition, scheduled to take place from September 30th to October 3rd, 2024 in the Grenoble region, is being organized by two young researchers from the ParaFrap network: Christopher Swale (IAB, Grenoble) and Jessica Bryant (Institut Pasteur, Paris), with assistance from Mohamed-Ali Hakimi and Artur Sherf. The workshop will include a scientific session open to all attendees, where 12 junior PIs (10 selected by the organizing committee and 2 by the organizers) will present their research. Following this, the 12 young scientists will take part in a retreat focused on new technologies. Registration for the scientific session is free but mandatory, and includes participation in the scientific presentations, lunch on Monday, and coffee breaks. Registration deadline: September 4th, 2024. |
