About the event

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to invite you in the name of the Swiss MD-PhD Association (SMPA) to join us for our next local meeting this Thursday (August 4). We will meet at 6pm in front of the Tinguely Museum Basel (at the Rhine). We will go Rhine swimming together and have a drink afterwards. The first drink will be sponsored by the SMPA. Those who don’t want to join for Rhine swimming are welcome to join us later, around 7pm at a Buvette between Dreirosen- and Mittlere Brücke.

If you have medical student, MD or MD-PhD friends that are interested or are already involved in any kind of science do not hesitate to invite them and bring them along!

We're looking forward to seeing you!

Best regards,

Tanay Kaymak and Maurizio Cortada
