The Biomedical Research Centre of the Católica Medical School is co-organizing the SymbNET PhD Summer School on Host-Microbe Symbioses, which will take place from July 2 to 15, at the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência in Oeiras.

This Summer School aims to train the next generation of researchers in host-microbe symbioses. Over two weeks, 22 professors and 35 international PhD students will discuss the subject, as well as develop new research projects and promote new research dynamics.

Luís Teixeira, professor and researcher at the Católica Medical School and the Instituto Gulbenkian de Ciência, is part of the scientific organizing committee and will join the panel of international speakers at the event.
