Courses and events

The Academia Raetica organizes transferable skills courses for all scientists from its member and partner institutions. You can download a preview of the 2024 program here. Public events are aimed at everyone with an interest in science.

The Academia Raetica and its member institutions and partners organize exhibitions, excursions, conferences, lectures and workshops to publicize the results of research in the Grisons.

The Academia Raetica is the coordinator of the event series Science Café Graubünden (Wissenschaftscafé Graubünden), a format to promote dialogue between researchers and citizens. The Science Cafés are a national project of the Science et Cité Foundation and are part of the Science Cafés Switzerland. The organisers of the individual events in Graubünden are, in addition to the Academia Raetica, its members and other institutions associated with science in the canton of Graubünden.

ARI Orthopaedics 2025 Biofabrication

Since 1999, eCM ’s yearly conferences in the preclinical orthopedic research area in Davos were organized by scientists from ARI and have now been rebranded to ARI Orthopaedics —conferences where biologists, material scientists, engineers, clinicians, and the relative industry can meet. The 2025 congress edition will be an exceptional one, since it will, from 16-19 June, bring together all orthopedic fields across three important conferences at the Davos Congress Centre; EORS, CAOS, and ARI Orthopaedics . Therefore, the AO Orthopaedic Research Summit 2025 will be a unique opportunity to meet colleagues and friends, learn from workshops, and create networks where participants will exchange ideas across all three societies to transform orthopedic surgery and create new paradigms. This is your opportunity to share your latest research, innovative ideas, and unique perspectives with a dynamic community of professionals, researchers, and thought leaders. Join us to inspire, collaborate, and advance knowledge in Biomaterials.
