- Reposted by Swiss Young Immunologists Society👉Choosing Your Panel Wisely Both grantees applied in very specific #ERC panels — not always the obvious ones. Though their projects involved immunology, one framed it as tissue physiology, another as stem cell biology. 🧫🧬 Why? Because it fit better and gave their ideas the right audience.💬
- Join us for next week’s seminar where we’ll hear about 🧬 T cells and 🦠 E. coli! @yefis-immunology.bsky.social
