DILS Seminar

Summer Semester 2022

Tuesdays, 14:15, ekvv


Hybrid: U10-116/146 and online via Zoom.


This doctoral research seminar of the DILS graduate school is dedicated to PhD students of the Bielefeld Institute for Bioinformatics Infrastructure (BIBI) and ZB MED - Information Centre for Life Sciences. Guests are always welcome.


The topics presented are determined by the research interests of the graduate school. The main aim of this seminar is to keep the participants informed on the current developments and to critically discuss recent developments.


This semester, we get in touch with several alumni with a bioinformatics PhD. We want to provide our students a broad and realistic impression of different career perspectives both on and off the academic track. We invite our guests to report on their past and present jobs, roles, and steps as well as their motives, experiences and insights in an interactive, informal atmosphere.


Collection of aspects that could be covered.
