Empowering scientists globally. ICRO mentors tomorrow’s leaders today, giving young scientists around the world equal chances to contribute to the progress of science, and become full members of the scientific community. Our advanced courses train brilliant young minds and help pave their careers. They create a tightknit network for graduates and experienced researchers to share and advance knowledge at the frontier of biology. An inclusive approach to research and active learning promotes understanding, peace and progress. It is the key to tackling global challenges, from Alzheimer’s to the Zika virus. Discoveries are made when everyone can join the conversation. We envision a world in which collaborative learning knows no boundaries – where science becomes the bridge across borders.
