Nucleic Acid Chemistry Meeting 2023
09/21/2023On the occasion of the XI. Nucleic Acid Chemistry Meeting of the DNG (German Nucleic Acid Society) about 120 researchers gathered at the University of Würzburg from 14th to 15th of September 2023, exchanging and discussing their most recent scientific results.
Twelve fascinating lectures were given and 64 posters were exhibited, accompanied by eleven poster flash talks. After two lively poster sessions, five poster prize winners were elected by all participants of the meeting.
Congratulations to the poster prize winners!
