About the Conference
Supported by a bilateral collaborative grant between UK Research and Innovation and the Swiss National Science Foundation, the Swiss-UK Synthetic Biology Conference 2023 will showcase the world-leading synthetic biology research emerging from the UK and Switzerland. Anyone may attend and/or submit an abstract to this conference -- not just researchers in the UK and Switzerland.
About Lausanne
On the shore of Lake Geneva, with a wonderful view of the Alps, the city of Lausanne is the perfect combination of nature and innovation. You can enjoy the panorama with a classic excursion, or by doing stand-up paddling or a boat trip on the lake. A few minutes from the city are the Lavaux terraces, terraced vineyards sloping down towards the lake, a UNESCO heritage site. Thanks to its two university centres, Unil and EPFL, Lausanne is at the forefront of research and education. Come and visit us and don't miss the opportunity to explore this wonderful region!
