1st Crick-Beddington Developmental Biology Symposium

Posted by James Briscoe, on 30 October 2018

The 1st Developmental Biology Symposium will take place at the Francis Crick Institute in London on 4-5 February 2019: https://www.crick.ac.uk/crick-beddington-symposium

This two-day symposium will showcase the best in developmental biology across the life course. From embryogenesis through to ageing, areas of current excitement in the field will be highlighted by plenary talks from 15 internationally renowned speakers, along with selected short talks from abstracts.

The symposium will honour the memory of Rosa Beddington, a leading UK embryologist who was Head of the Division of Mammalian Development at the MRC National Institute for Medical Research from 1993-2001. Many of Rosa’s colleagues and lab alumni will be attending the symposium.

Register via the website before the deadline of 1st December 2018 to qualify for the reduced early-bird rate of £90: https://www.crick.ac.uk/crick-beddington-symposium

We invite submissions for short talks (15 minutes) from early-career researchers (PhD students, postdocs and recently-established PIs). Please submit your abstracts to events@crick.ac.uk by 1 December 2018. Abstracts should be no more than 500 words including the title, authors and institution information. The presenter for short talks must have registered their attendance to the conference by 1 December 2018. Please ensure the presenter’s name is underlined on your submission.

We look forward to seeing you at the Crick in February,

The Organising Committee (James Briscoe, Alex Gould, Rita Sousa-Nunes and Jean-Paul Vincent)
