To receive 6 credit points: talk, written report and regular attendance are required.

  • duration of talk: 40 min + 5 min questions (in case there is only one talk on the specific date, talks are allowed to be longer, if desired.)
  • Presentation either on site in the seminar room or remote; in the latter case, a computer with camera and microphone is needed, slides to be shared via Zoom.us
  • written report: overview of the presented topic, maximum 10 pages, to be handed in until 01. October 2024 (Please submit your report and the slides of your talk via email using the following filename convention: <last name>, <first name>_<matriculation number>_<abbreviated title>_[report/slides].)
     

PD Dr. Tristan A. Kuder (t.kuder@dkfz.de), Prof. Dr. Leif Schröder (leif.schroeder@dkfz.de)

 

 

Access to the seminar room: Due to a construction site, access to the main entrance is not obvious: Please refer to the following map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=16mEtQXetbcNAr7GM5Sxl5P1QreuCdRk&usp=sharing

Coming from the west (point A), walk along the northern side of the building in east direction to the construction site (blue line on the map), go up the stairs to the main entrance. In the main entrance hall, go the white staircase up to the first floor. You will be directly in front of the seminar room (see red markers on the map).
