It’s a unique opportunity to listen to the physician and scientific communicator Siddhartha Mukherjee, who will give a talk titled “The Song of the Cell” and then engage in conversation with IBEC scientists Irene Marco-Rius and Xavier Rovira.
Mukherjee is one of the most prominent figures in the world of scientific communication, thanks to his ability to captivatingly convey complex scientific themes. With publications such as “The Emperor of All Maladies: A Biography of Cancer,” “The Gene: An Intimate History,” and “The Laws of Medicine,” Mukherjee has been internationally acclaimed, solidifying his reputation as a master of the art of scientific communication.
The conversation promises to be an enriching meeting that will address key aspects of the world of science, genetics, and the underlying principles governing cellular organization and how these affect the function and dysfunction of biological tissues. We will delve into the realm of advanced therapies, early disease detection, and personalized medicine.
After the event, Siddhartha will be available for book signings, and there will also be a small book stand where attendees can purchase his books.
