IMB’s Communications and Events Office organises a wide range of events, where outstanding scientists can share and discuss the latest research and techniques. These include the institute's annual Conference, the international Seminar and Lecture Series, workshops, meetings and other institutional events.

Furthermore, they support IMB researchers in hosting their own events by:

• Helping to find funding for events
• Managing events, including the invitation of speakers, arranging their travel, booking and preparing venues, advertising the event, managing registrations and participants, catering etc.
• Offering on-site administrative and technical support
• Managing post-event matters

In addition, the Communications and Events Office handles IMB’s press and public relations.

We keep people up to date with news bulletins, social media announcements through Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn as well as maintaining our alumni network, organising outreach events for the wider public and developing IMB merchandise.
