How to plan your concurrent session schedule

The concurrent sessions at The EMBO Meeting aim to provide a snapshot of what is currently happening in life science research. The conference chairs have devised the programme in such a way that concurrent sessions that focus on similar research areas do not run in parallel. The different colours indicate the broad areas that are being discussed at the molecular, organismal, cellular and methodological level.
