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!
