Welcome to the joint seminar of Biomedical Engineering and Medical Physics (BioMEP) and Genetics and Mechanisms in Translational Medicine (GenomMed). These doctoral programs at the University of Eastern Finland are co-funded by Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union (Marie Skłodowska Curie grant agreement numbers 740264 and 713645). The programme on 25–26 February is open to all interested.
