Welcome to National EVE Consortium Seminar!
“Extracellular Vesicles in Finland”
One of the founding organizations of the Finnish National Society of Extracellular Vesicles has been the EVE Consortium.
This Consortium funded by Business Finland Co-Innovation tool from 2019 onwards is now turning to its completion.
The EVE Consortium and its 13 partners present their research activities in cell-based therapies, especially those involving EVs.
We invite all interested to this free-of-charge seminar to Hotel Rosenthal, Tampere, on Tuesday, 2nd May 2023 from 12.00 to 18.00 EET.
Free participation at place is limited to 50 persons and registration is obligatory.
There is a possibility to participate online via TEAMS for additional 100 persons.
TEAMS link will be delivered to all registered as remote participant.
Deadline to register is 25.4.2023
