Seminars, Meetings, & Invited Speakers
TS Group Meetings
All students and researchers are welcome at our meetings, regardless of your age and background! Just contact Oliver.
The Group meets on Tuesday mornings (0915-1100).
One person presents their current research in depth, and there are five flash talks on new literature.
Our Chemistry Denksports are on Thursday lunchtimes: total synthesis and chem bio / med chem.
The TS Group Research Retreats have resumed. Jan'22: Writing Papers and Theses. Aug'22: Herrsching Week.
Seminars Around us: Chem & Pharm (LMU); Chem MChG (LMU / TUM); Biology (LMU & MPI); Biophysics (LMU-CeNS)

Group Meeting Exchange
Informal "shared group seminars" with up-and-coming groups, to inject some diversity into our weekly science
2022.04 - Larissa von Krbek (Bonn)

LMU Junior Research Groups seminar #1, "ChemBioChem": April 29th 2022, 15:00 s.t., Butenandt-HS
Looking for BSc/MSc thesis, internship, and PhD positions in Chem, Biochem, Pharma and Bio?
The Heisenberg, Emmy Noether, and Liebig Junior Groups at LMU present their research and position openings.
After the talks, there is free radler, beer and brezn outside, where interested students can directly approach all the research group leaders to ask questions or talk about projects.
For the ChemBioChem seminar, please register at this link until 27th April.
Then we know how much drinks and food to buy, and can email you updates or the set of slides as a PDF afterwards.
The second seminar, "Inorganic, Photochem, Microscopy & Materials", is on May 6th - details at this link.
