The Crick Interest Groups were developed to bring together scientists working on diverse biological systems, with many different complementary sets of expertise, to understand how these processes are regulated in health and how their breakdown can result in diverse diseases
The aim of the Interest Groups is to enhance scientific discussion by strengthening existing interactions and promoting new links within and across the different Interest Groups.
Regular internal and external seminars enrich scientific discourse across the partner institutions, whilst also maximizing the training of PhD students, Postdocs and other team members within our partner organisations.
Key Information
- Associate Member status gives you and two junior group members (students or early stage postdocs whose work most closely aligns with those of Crick researchers) membership of one interest group.
- Lab members will be expected to present their research in the Interest Goup Internal Series. Details of the number of presentations can be found in the guidance notes
- External seminars are open to a wider audience; speakers in this series are always external.
- Full participation is necessary so if neither you nor your lab members attend seminars, your membership woudl lapse.
- Since Interest Group Membership necessarily entails the privilege and responsibility of hearing unpublished work in progress The Crick considers it equitable that the Interest Group co-organiser should maintain the right to not accept a membership application for reasons of conflict of interest.
