UCL 3rd meeting of the UCL Cross-Disciplinary Network on Soft Materials

The aim of the event is to connect UCL researchers that are interested in soft materials, ranging from fundamental science to practical applications. We expect participants from across UCL, including the Faculties of Brain Sciences, Built Environment, Engineering Sciences, Life Sciences, Mathematical and Physical Sciences and Medical Sciences. Last year, 140 colleagues signed up from 20 different departments and institutes across UCL.

The event is free thanks to the financial support of the MAPS and Engineering Faculties.
