Sahlgrenska Academy Junior Researcher Symposium
Welcome to the website for the third Sahlgrenska Academy Junior Researcher Symposium (SAJRS). This two-day event will be held at the Wallenberg Conference Centre on 27 and 28 January 2025. Future Faculty arranges the symposium. Attendance is free and open to all Sahlgrenska Academy researchers. A limited amount of places are available for researchers from other departments of the University of Gothenburg and Chalmers.
The symposium will provide a forum to share your research and learn what others around you are doing. There will be selected oral presentations over the two days and extensive poster sessions. The presenters will mainly comprise junior researchers (broadly defined as post-graduate students through to junior faculty), but the event is open to all. Don’t miss this opportunity to showcase your research and connect with the vibrant Sahlgrenska Academy community!
We are excited to announce that this year’s symposium will feature two keynote speakers: Professor Jenny Nyström, Dean of the Sahlgrenska Academy, and Professor Michael Schöll, who will share insights and experiences relevant to biomedical science.
A new meeting place
In addition to Sahlgrenska Academy researchers, you will have the opportunity to hear from and interact with representatives from a range of bio- and med-tech companies as well as representatives of the Sahlgrenska Academy Research Support Office.
