About us
Cambridge Metabolism is hosted within the Institute of Metabolic Science, and promotes metabolic research activities and events among the broad academic research community in Cambridge, including members of all six Schools of the University and key partner organisations including industry and other institutes in the region.
Our objectives are to:
- nurture an inter-disciplinary community of researchers
- support the development of new research
- co-ordinate activities in areas of importance to research in metabolism and
- facilitate translation of research to benefit current and future populations.
Cambridge Metabolism was originally launched in 2013 (as the Cambridge Metabolic Network) and funded through the University of Cambridge Strategic Research Initiatives and Networks initiative in order to build on areas of existing research strength by bringing together a critical mass of expertise from across the Schools and beyond.
Joining Cambridge Metabolism is free and is open to Cambridge-based researchers, at any level of their career, with an interest in research relating to metabolism. We encourage everyone based in Cambridge and surrounding areas, with an interest in metabolism to join us at events and we are always open to new ideas from our members.
If you are interested in joining Cambridge Metabolism you will be added to our online Directory and also added to our mailing list to hear the latest on news, events and funding opportunities.
