The UCT Mainz Science Day aims at providing a platform to enhance the scientific exchange between clinicians, basic scientists, postdocs and students involved in cancer research at the UCT Mainz, FZI, TRON, IMB, CTH, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, and other companies and research institutions in and around Mainz. During the Science Day, young investigators as well as established researchers who are working in different core research areas of the UCT Mainz will have the opportunity to present their own results (either in selected talks or as a poster) to the UCT Mainz community.
