Our board, 2024/25

At the heart of the Young European Biotech Network (YEBN) is a vibrant and dedicated group of young professionals and life sciences students from across Europe. Our team is composed of volunteers with diverse expertise in biotechnology, research, and innovation. They work together to promote knowledge exchange, foster international collaboration, and empower the next generation of biotech leaders.

Together, we manage multiple teams of volunteers:

  • Events Team: organises and coordinates our events (find out more on our LinkedIn and Instagram!)
  • Communications Team: manages our social media pages and our newsletter
  • Networking and Partnerships Team: focuses on fostering collaborations with our members and growing the network
