"Ideally, a scientist publishes
in PLoS, gets invitations for conferences, committees and collaboration from all over
the world, and discusses
the impact of science on
society with thousands of
Facebook-friends.
GRE2007 helps you
become that scientist."

Masterclasses overview

The plenary programme will be followed by several small-scale masterclasses led by internationally renowned scientists. Because of the small groups, the masterclasses provide you with the opportunity to directly interact with the presenting scientist and allow for in-depth discussions.
