CanCell Young Scientists has the pleasure to invite you to Alumni Day, an event where you can come and find out about opportunities outside of academia. With only 3% of PhDs that obtain professor positions, it is high time to discuss attractive possibilities away from this institute and the university. We have invited a selection of scientists who will be able to answer your questions concerning how they got to where they are, with a focus on the transition process. Some of the participants have outlined two challenges they encountered when moving away from academia, which we hope will trigger some questions from you.

Read the participants’ biographies carefully and come prepared for this event! Half of the event is based on Q & A, and this will only be successful if the audience participates. We hope you are able to make the best of this opportunity!  

We are happy to invite Philippe Collas, professor at Institute for Basic Medical Sciences and associated member at CanCell to hold a digital seminar for CanCell on August 20th. His talk is titled: "Aspects of 3D genome topology during differentiation" and will be preceded by flash talks from our junior grant recipients. 

CanCell is investing in technologies for advanced genetic manipulation, and is currently facilitating a centre-wide collaboration effort on the preparation and execution of pooled CRISPR screens. This workshop will focus on exposing some of the newest technologies available in the centre, and to explore and discuss novel ideas, setting seeds for potentially new and exciting projects amongst the young scientists in the CanCell. 

CanCell will host an online seminar with professor Andrea Ballabio from Telethon Institute of Genetics and Medicine of Pozzuoli. Maja Radulovic, CanCell will give a Young Shot talk prior to Ballabio's presentation. 

The seminar will be arranged online on Zoom.

Our user panel have graciously agreed to give individual feedback on Cancer Society and Helse Sør-Øst Open Call applications for preregistered applicants* among CanCell scientist.
