We organize and sponsor international workshops to facilitate one of the key missions of the BioMed21 collaboration – to bring relevant players together in order to identify opportunities, acknowledge existing barriers, and make recommendations necessary for implementation of a human biology platform for biomedical research. Here you can learn about our events: the speakers, their presentations, and formal accounts of the workshops, including our published workshop reports.
