Further detail
The Masterclass is a series of lecture/discussion forum presented by postdocs that provides unique opportunities for researchers/students in the biological sciences to: • Share and discuss current hot topics in research fields. • Present and discuss new cutting edge techniques, skills and tools being used in laboratories. • Get together and discuss possible collaborations between and across laboratories. • Learn about less familiar subject areas. • Network and make friends across laboratories and departments. • Promote university facilities and resources. All (students, P.I.s, technicians etc.) are welcome! Organized by Postdoc Masterclass Committee If you have a question about this list, please contact: lkt34; Dr Caitlin Hitchcock; Mark Dunning; Postdoc Masterclass; ss2306; Dr Megan Oliva; Linda.Julian; Leonor Miller-Fleming.
