Meetings are held weekly and begin with refreshments at 15.45, followed by two 30 minute talks from 16.00. Talks are given by postdocs, final year PhD students and/or young PIs.

Autumn 2016 ISMB seminar series - 5 October 2016

Prof Matthew Higgins (Department of Biochemistry, Oxford)

Host: Dr Andrew Osborne
Title: Structural insights into severe Malaria
Venue: Glaxo-Wellcome Lecture Room B62, Birkbeck College

'Molecular Pathogenesis (Viruses, Bacteria, Parasites)'
Coordinated by Dr Andrew Osborne and Dr Renos Savva

Pathogens and their hosts co-evolve in what has been described as a "molecular arms race". This series will explore the subversion of cellular processes from the nanoscale in the case of the smallest virus-like entities, the viroids, to microscopic viruses and the eukaryotic parasites causing malaria. As usual there will also be some off-topic talks.

The complete programme of talks is available on the ISMB website:
