The RFMF Fall School will take place from November 17 to 20, 2025 in the intimate setting of the Espace Beaulieu, located in Bordeaux. Originally a Capuchin convent, this cloister has been transformed over the centuries into a seminary, then a monastery, and finally a Diocesan House. It is now a place for sharing art and a variety of cultural events.
Join us for an exciting experience. On the menu: talks by renowned experts in metabolomics, presentation of innovative work by junior students, stimulating exchanges and a guaranteed convivial atmosphere!
