Nucleic Acid Afternoon - 29 Nov. 2024


Invitation to "AUSBI Nucleic Acid Afternoon" on Friday 29 November 2024


On Friday 29 November 2024 from 12:30-16:30, AUSBI is hosting the next AUSBI Afternoon meeting, which will focus on Nucleic Acids research.

The AUSBI Nucleic Acid Afternoon welcomes all researchers across departments at Aarhus University, with an interest in structural and biophysical analysis of nucleic acids.

The aim is to share experiences with techniques relevant to nucleic acids under the AUSBI umbrella, as well as gather ideas for the future of nucleic acid structural biology.

The meeting is open to everyone interested, and we strongly encourage both group leaders, junior researchers, and students to join. Note that group leaders are highly encouraged to participate in order to stimulate attendance for the rest of their group, and bring forward valuable input about possible method-expertise and collaborations across groups and departments.

Participants are asked to bring a poster about their research (re-use of excisting posters are perfectly fine).

Publication reads before the meeting


Everyone attending the AUSBI Nucleic Acid Afternoon meeting is highly encouraged to prepare by reading the papers mention below here.

Important note, if you are a PhD student:

  • The PhD schools from MBG, iNANO, CHEM and PHYS have agreed, that PhD students participating in three AUSBI Afternoon Meetings and an AUSBI Annual Meeting can claim 1 ECTS annually.
  • Further to obtain 1 ECTS annually, the PhD student has to read and understand a publication, which will be announced in advance of each AUSBI Afternoon Meeting (via email to participants and on this website).
  • Please indicate in your registration (or inform AUSBI admin. Karen Bech-Pedersen (karenb@mbg.au.dk)), if you wish to have registered your attendance to obtain the ECTS point.

Poster information


All participants are highly encouraged to bring a research poster (re-use of existing poster is perfectly fine).

The poster boards have the dimensions: 190 cm high, and 84 cm wide.
This fits well with A0 poster format (which is 1189mm tall and 841mm wide), but no specific poster size format is requested though.

Poster hanging guidelines:

  • Please hang your poster outside the "Nucleus" auditorium (1871-120) upon your arrival.
  • There will be poster boards available, as well as poster gum and pins.
  • Remeber to take your poster down at the end of the day.
