Bioperspectives 2007 in Cologne hosted the formation of the new umbrella organisation “VBIO - Verband Biologie, Biowissenschaften und Biomedizin in Deutschland“, the German Life Sciences Association. Both major representatives of Bio and Life Sciences in Germany - the “vbbm - Verbund biowissenschaftlicher und biomedizinischer Gesellschaften” (vbbm) and the “Verband Deutscher Biologen und biowissenschaftlicher Fachgesellschaften” (vdbiol) – joined forces. The new VBIO - Verband Biologie, Biowissenschaften und Biomedizin, for the first time comprises about 5.000 individual members, more than 30.000 members of life science organizations and 80 companies and institutions. Thus, VBIO unites under one roof everyone in Germany who is involved in Bio and Life Sciences in schools, universities, industry, administration, research institutions or as a free-lancer. Members of VBIO represent the whole spectrum of Life Sciences from the molecular and the cellular, the organismic to the ecological level as well as biomedicine. ... [Information of the supplier]
