Kick-off meeting //
To celebrate the start of Geneva Quantum Centre, we are organising a one-day kick-off event aimed at presenting the future activities of the Centre and the on-going research in some of its laboratories with the goal of raising awareness of what we are all doing across the different departments (GAP, DQMP, DPT) and to help identify possible synergies. The meeting will take place on September, Tuesday 13, 2022 at the Geneva Campus Biotech (chemin des Mines 9, 1202 Genève).
