Seminars

ISMB seminars take place on Wednesdays during term time, providing research staff and students with the opportunity to hear talks by world class scientists.

The termly seminar series are organised around specific themes, and are co-ordinated jointly by the Research Department of Structural Molecular Biology at UCL and the Department of Biological Sciences, Birkbeck. All are welcome to attend.

ISMB Seminar Series Term 3 Summer 2023-24

Coordinators: Gabriella Heller and Graeme King

The ISMB series in April and May will feature leading biophysics experts to present their latest advancements (including molecular dynamics simulations and single molecule methods), promising a deep dive into emerging tools and approaches that offer unprecedented insights into the dynamic behaviours of biomolecules and their complex roles within biological systems at the molecular level.
