IPLS Meet-Up March 2022
The theme of this meet up is: Physics of multicellular systems
IPLS Meet-Up March 2022
25 Mar 2022, 14:00 – 16:30
At termly IPLS Meet-ups researchers working at the interface of physics and biology at UCL and neighbouring institutions present their work. Meet-ups are a great opportunity to learn about the latest interdisciplinary research.
This Meet-up is part of the Biophysics Week, organised by the Biophysical Society.
