Join us to discuss Open Science, RRI and genomic medicine at ESOF in Trieste. The ORION partners will be involved in three sessions during ESOF 2020 - EuroScience Open Forum which takes place on 2-6 September in Trieste. The theme for ESOF 2020 is: “Freedom for science, science for freedom". Due to Covid-19, this year's ESOF is also open for online participation.
This year's ESOF will be a hybrid event with delegates participating either in place in Trieste or online. The ORION partners will be involved in the following sessions:
- Genomic medicine: novel ethics and society challenges - 3 Sep 10:15-11:45, Virtual room 1
