歐洲分子生物學組織(EMBO)成立於1964年,總部位於德國海德堡,致力於推動生命科學研究與促進國際學術交流,亦為歐洲科學倡議組織的創始成員之一。為強化歐洲與台灣之間的科研合作,EMBO將於今年4月25日至27日在中央研究院舉辦「Evolving together: from genomics to biological interactions」工作坊,聚焦基因體學與生物交互作用等議題。工作坊結束後,本所擬於4月28日邀請兩位專長於微生物演化基因體學與抗藥性研究的學者Gianni Liti教授(法國INSERM,亦為EMBO Fellow)及Michael McDonald教授(澳洲Monash University)蒞院演講,並以小型研討會形式與國衛院同仁進行深入交流。活動亦安排感疫所羅秀容研究員及群健所廖玉潔研究員進行學術報告,並包含餐敘與實地參訪。兩位學者以實驗演化生物學與族群遺傳學為主要研究方法,其經驗可補強本院研究能量,並促進跨領域合作,拓展抗藥性相關議題之國際交流契機。
