This was a collaborative event between the University’s Metabolic Network and Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, to showcase how innovative new approaches and technologies from mathematical, computing, engineering, physical and chemical sciences are helping to deliver impact and improve patient care.
The session included a series of short talks from leading investigators followed by a panel discussion and then a number of flash-talks by Cambridge graduate students, post-doctoral and early career researchers, selected from submitted abstracts.
Great meeting today bringing physical chemical and computational scientists together with our metabolic community. Many exciting opportunities for future collaborations.
Professor Sir Stephen O’Rahilly
