Life Science 2025 Review

						On February 13, 2025, the Life Science event took place at FHI. This small-scale event is specifically aimed at laboratory technicians. The atrium has been converted into an exhibition floor and the conference rooms transform into practical workshop spaces after the break. The first half of the day is dedicated to three lectures. Leading names from the industry and scientific world dive straight into the depths, with minimal introduction. Some prior knowledge is required here.
