German Clock Club - first meeting in Munich March 19, 2013, Schillerstrasse 44, Room K318
What is the German Clock Club? Clocks research in Germany is extremely strong, however we think that it would benefit from friendly, informative meetings twice a year to hear what we are all working on, to intensify collaborations and exchange know-how and methods. These meetings should provide a forum where we improve each other's science via critique on work in progress. We are borrowing this model from the successful UK and Dutch clock clubs, where these meetings have ultimately supported increased visibility in the scientific community leading to increased funding.
With this meeting we were picking up an initiative that had started with the 1st Clock-Club-Meeting in Frankfurt exactly 10 years ago (March 2003). We are determined that – this time – we will all be more successful in making this a regular platform for German chronobiologists.
The program on 19 March consisted of short talks, ending with a plenary lecture at 15:00 by Dr. Eva Wolf, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München who spoke about ‘Structure-function analyses of Drosophila and mammalian clock proteins’.
