Seminar series
As part of the vibrant culture within our School, we run a regular programme of seminars for staff and students.
Seminars cover a variety of topics and themes which are linked to the School’s four research divisions:
- Molecular biosciences (MOLBIO)
- Neuroscience (NEURO)
- Organisms and environment (ONE)
- Biomedicine (BMD)
