Science Slam - Your research on stage
4 early career scientists have the chance to present their research projects on stage at this year's DGHM annual conference - in an understandable and engaging way in a maximum of 10 minutes.
This is where science meets entertainment - creative ways of presenting your research are highly encouraged.
The audience decides who wins!
The only requirements:
- your project is university-related (university, university of applied sciences, research institute, etc.),
- is from the field of microbiology and hygiene AND
- is based on your own research results.
Ready to present your research in an entertaining way?
Then sign up for the Science Slam during the registration for the DGHM Annual Meeting 2025.
A digital introductory workshop is planned for all participants of the Science Slam before the conference (probably June/July). In addition to the most important information about the Science Slam, there will also be room for your questions.
Deadline for submission: 15 June 2025.
If you have any questions, please contact office@dghm.de.
Young Talent Session
If you submit your abstract in one of the categories: Microbial Pathogenicity, Gastrointestinal Infections or Eukaryotic Pathogens and are currently doing your doctoral thesis (PhD or MD) and/or want to present at a conference for the first time, you can apply.
During this session we offer the opportunity to:
- present your work, even if it is not yet finished and completed,
- practice a scientific presentation at a conference
- receive feedback from experienced scientists specifically on your presentation style.
The feedback discussion will take place after the session in a small group, excluding the audience.
Contact person: Annika Schmidt at Annika.Schmidt@med.uni-tuebingen.de.
Laboratory tour
With our laboratory tours, we would like to give you an insight into modern microbiological diagnostics at a university hospital and we will be happy to discuss the various methods with you.
Both bacteriological and virological tests are carried out at the Institute of Medical Microbiology. In bacteriology, discover the automated preparation of various samples on culture media. Pathogens are identified using biochemical measurements on the one hand, but also using MALDI-TOF in a time- and cost-effective manner. When preparing antibiograms, our laboratory uses both classic and modern methods. In blood culture diagnostics, we use analytical methods such as the blood culture automaton and pathogen and resistance gene identification using isothermal amplification.
In the field of virology, we work primarily with molecular biology techniques. We have access to fully integrated laboratory automation systems with high throughput. Devices for rapid diagnostics and multiplex testing complement this area.
For infection serology or the determination of vaccine titres, we also rely on classic test systems such as ELISA and immunoblots, but also use modern analysis systems such as CLIA for the rapid and cost-effective detection of antibodies.
We also have biosafety level 3 laboratories, where we mainly carry out tuberculosis diagnostics, but also research work on SARS-CoV2 and dengue viruses.
We hope to give you a valuable insight into our diagnostics and look forward to a lively exchange of experiences.
We look forward to your visit!
Bettina Löffler and the team at the Institute of Medical Microbiology
