The 68th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting

The 68th Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting is dedicated to physiology and medicine. Key topics will include the circadian clock, genetic engineering, science in a post-factual era and science publishing. This year, 600 young scientists from all over the world will meet 42 Nobel Laureates, including some of the most recent recipients of the Nobel Prize (find the complete list of participating laureates here).

The programme will include numerous lectures, panel discussions, Agora Talks, master classes and a poster session. In addition, there will be plenty of opportunities for informal exchange with the meeting participants on the fringes of the sessions as well as during the social events. The organisers of the meeting can arrange interview appointments for journalists with laureates, young scientists and guests. The meeting programme will be available online from April 2018.
