The 2017 Molecular Mingle

Taking place on Thursday 19th October from 830pm, the Umspannwerk Alexanderplatz is within walking distance of the congress venue

Our delegate networking events have become a staple of our annual congresses, allowing for a fun and exciting environment in which to meet with your colleagues and friends. With our annual 'Molecular Mingle' we bring together what we feel is the best cultural representation of our host city and country, in terms of ambiance, entertainment, and most importantly: food!

The Molecular Mingle 2017 takes place in the famed 'Umspannwerk Alexanderplatz', a former electrical substation from the 1960s which has been redeveloped as an event space. Themed along the modern and edgy street art and street food, live cooking stations will be hosted by the famous German pop-up chefs 'Kochbox', who will offer an array of German street food to suit the environment.

Complimentary Registration for Members of the Press

Complimentary ESGCT media registration is intended for professional science communicators (those whose primary income comes from science communication).  Print and broadcast reporters, freelance reporters with appropriate credentials may attend the meeting for the purpose of editorial coverage via complimentary press passes which you can access through the usual registration path.  Once you have registered you can apply the following voucher code Press17 which will reduce your registration fee to ZERO.

Embargo Policy

Media are required to abide by the embargo policies governing the ESGCT Annual Meeting. The ESGCT embargo policy states that coverage of meeting abstracts and poster presentations pre-published online, included in the printed abstract books and/or otherwise available is strictly prohibited until the start of each individual presentation. This embargo extends to blogging, tweeting and content dissemination through all other online and offline communications channels.

The ESGCT has experienced fantastic growth over the past years, and we continue to focus on the programme, speakers, and networking opportunities.

One of our aims is to ensure we move around Europe and work with national societies where possible, often having to secure a venue many years before the time of the congress. Sometimes, taking all our aims into account, it is not possible to satisfy them all, and we base our decisions on what our delegates and supporters value most: opportunity to network, to engage with one another, to share new research and experiences.

In Berlin we have chosen a culturally exciting city, with the opportunity to collaborate with the German Society for Gene Therapy DG-GT. In Berlin we have selected the bcc as the most suitable venue taking into account accessibility, comfort, ease of use and appropriate technology. However, for this venue we have had to cap attendance at 1000 delegates, so please ensure that if you wish to join us at our 2017 congress, to register as soon as we open registrations on 1st May.

We also regularly evaluate our pricing structure to ensure we continue to offer the programme you have come to value and appreciate over the years, whilst ensuring we continue to prioritise students the way we have always done. We are pleased to continue to offer a fantastic scientific programme, networking opportunities, a heavily subsidised Molecular Mingle networking evening in addition to fully catered coffee and lunch breaks at rates that are lower comparable rates to other congresses.
