LS2 Section Molecular and Cellular Biosciences
This section was formely known as «Swiss Society for Molecular and Cellular Biosciences» (SSMCB) before its fusion with LS2 in January 2016.
The SSMCB was the result of a merger between the Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Biochemie (Société Suisse de Biochimie, Swiss Society for Biochemistry) and the Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Zellbiologie Molekularbiologie und Genetik (Société suisse de biologie cellulaire, biologie moléculaire et génétique, Swiss Society for Cell Biology, Molecular Biology and Genetics).
The LS2 section MCB represents the following disciplines: cell biology / genetics / biochemistry / developmental biology / evolution and development / chemical biology / cellular microbiology and virology /
The goal of the Molecular and Cellular Biosciences section is to foster interactions and exchanges between young Swiss scientists in Switzerland and abroad sharing an interest in the molecular and cellular biosciences, regardless of their particular specialties.
