...Understanding the Physics of Life

The Honourable Schoolboy







from the EPSRC/BBSRC network on "Understanding the Physics of Life":
 
From Molecules to Systems – Focussed Workshops 1 and 2 Open for Registration
 
Following our Plenary Events, we are organising a series of Focussed Workshops. The main purpose of these meetings will be to provide opportunities for researchers to talk and interact through, for example, brief flash presentations, speed-dating exercises, facilitated discussions and other activities. Each meeting also features a top-class line-up of invited speakers to set the scene and stimulate discussion. Our goal is to provide a context in which researchers can build new collaborative cross-disciplinary partnerships to address key challenges in Understanding the Physics of Life.
 
Numbers are limited for each meeting in order to facilitate participation by all attendees.
