BSSMS Seminar Series
- The Berlin Seminar Series in Microbial Sciences (BSSMS) was created by MPUSP to increase the reach of lectures given by internationally renowned scientists on research topics ranging from fundamental microbiology to microbial pathogenesis, infection biology, immunology, RNA biology and protein biology.
The seminars are organized by the junior and senior scientists of MPUSP. They are scheduled throughout the year. Most BSSMS seminars take place in the Max Planck building located at Virchowweg 12, Campus Charité Mitte, Berlin.
