The realm of cancer research: how does it look like to work in a lab?

Irene Vetrugno (Postdoc at University Hospital Zurich)
Ever wondered what it's like to work in a cancer research lab? Join me as I take you behind the scenes of cutting-edge cancer biology research. How do scientists study cancer without harming animals? What are organoids and organs-on-chips, and how are they changing the game? In this talk, I’ll walk you through exciting experiments, groundbreaking methodologies, and innovative technologies that are pushing the boundaries of cancer research. We will dive together into the realm of science that could one day transform cancer treatment.

Light, Lasers, Action! The coolest tricks in Neuroscience

Alina Marinescu (PhD candidate, ETH Zürich)
How do we untangle the brain’s complex circuits? From transgenic mouse models to viral-based tools, modern neuroscience is revolutionizing how we study the brain at cellular and circuit levels. Using in vivo fiber photometry, we can eavesdrop on neurons in real time as they orchestrate behavior. With optogenetics and chemogenetics, we don’t just observe... we modulate neural activity with precision. These innovative techniques bring us closer to understanding the brain’s inner workings, bridging the gap between activity and behavior. Join us for a deep dive into the future of neuroscience, where each breakthrough paves the way for a deeper understanding of the brain in health and disease.
