Summer Symposium of the Junior GBM
Münster
July 21 - 23, 2023
Welcome
Welcome to our website for this year’s jGBM summer symposium from 21. – 23. July 2023 in the beautiful city of Münster.
Our aim is to bring together young scientists to exchange ideas and discuss scientific news!
This year’s focus will be on imaging methods on different scales. From “micro”, e.g. the resolution of small structures and single molecules, to “macro”, such as the visualisation of bigger cell organelles and complete animals - our speakers will talk about methods to visualize objects in a variety of sizes. Thereby we will hear about various imaging techniques, as well as their applications and limitations in current research.
Additionally, workshops will complete the portfolio. Their aim is to give participants a closer look into a certain imaging technique or into the work of the imaging facilities located in Münster.
Several breaks within our daily agenda and the evening programs will enable enough time for networking and socializing with people from other cities and different study/ working fields.
We look forward to welcoming you!

Information
Location
Welcome to Münster! Münster is known as the “city of bikes and students” and is one of the most worth living cities in the world. Outstanding research and education are found at the University of Muenster, the University Medical Centre of Münster, the University of Applied Science, the Max-Planck-Institute and many more research institutions. Especially the field of life sciences with numerous collaborative research centres (dt.: Sonderforschungsbereiche) and the ‘cells in motion’ network award Münster a science location of excellent quality and highly collaborative atmosphere. Researchers focusing on basic research in chemistry, physics and biology are in close contact with groups performing clinical and industrial applications.
The symposium will be held in the Multiscale Imaging Centre (short: MIC, Röntgenstraße 16) in the centre of the natural science campus and close to the University Medical Centre in Münster. The building is home to different study groups, especially of the cells in motion interfaculty centre, which brings together a lot of different expertise here.
The campus for natural sciences is located ~25 min by bus from Münster main station, but the city centre including Hostel etc. is located in between both spots. Here are some tips where you could search for accommodation:
