Past Meetings

The LRN organizes a yearly conference, the “Leibniz-Wirkstofftage”, which is public since 2014. Each year another member organizes the conference, giving the participants the additional chance to explore the host institute. The conference features national and international keynote speakers from science and industry and a series of short presentations from the member institutes or associated partners.

Leibniz Conference on Bioactive Compounds 2023

Prizes for the best lecture and best poster go to young scientists of the IPB

Scientists from the member institutes of the Leibniz Research Network “Bioactive Compounds” came together for this year’s conference in Braunschweig from May 24 to 25, 2023. This year it was the turn of the DSMZ to host the event and welcome the participants in the lecture hall of the neighboring Helmholtz Forum (HZI). The meeting served – as usual – as a platform for exchange and discussion as well as for the presentation of scientific results in the form of lectures and poster presentations.

This year, for the first time, prizes were awarded for the best poster as well as for the best junior scientist talk. From the presented scientific posters as well as talks of the young scientists, the participants chose the best ones. Both awards went to young IPB scientists: Ibrahim Morgan was honored with the award for the best poster, Mohamad Saoud received the award for the best talk.
