Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Neurodegeneration - a Biochemical Society meeting

https://www.biochemistry.org/   We had glorious weather for the first day of our two day conference held at the University of Nottingham's Jubilee Conference Centre. The meeting was filled with fascinating talks, questions and posters. Dr. Amy Vincent was presented with the ECR 2023 award medal which was followed by her award lecture and reception. We had two flash poster presentation sessions, an ECR breakfast and Janet Shipton 'Painting with Mr.P' delivered a life drawing session for around 100 scientist delegates.

BBSRC DTP Spring conference

Lots of great research activity and plenty of good food and refreshments at the annual DTP conference in The Monica Partridge Building this week at University Park. Our current BBSRC students Nial and Katie each presented their studies and we all caught up with friends and colleagues.
