The Day of BioMedical Research

Since 1996, the Department for BioMedical Research (DBMR) has held a Day of BioMedical Research. The annual Day of BioMedical Research has established itself as a forum for researchers to present their work in a poster session and to get insights into the research projects of their colleagues. The event is open to the public, and gives an insight into the clinical and translational research activities at the University of Bern. The Day of BioMedical Research is also an excellent platform for making new contacts and exchanging ideas.
