The RDM Annual Symposium 2017 will take place on 6 March 2017 at the Saïd Business School. This event is an excellent opportunity to bring all members of the department together to celebrate and share the cutting edge research being undertaken within RDM.

We are pleased to announce that our keynote speaker will be Dr Robert Balaban, Chief of the Laboratory of Cardiac Energetics and Scientific Director of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute at the NIH.

Call for Posters

As part of the day we will have a poster session where students and postdocs/fellows, based in research groups within RDM, have the opportunity to present their research. We would like to invite you to submit an abstract to present a poster at the symposium.

As we are limited in the number of posters we can display (maximum 50), we would suggest that no more than 2-3 abstracts are submitted per research group. We will review all abstracts that are submitted to us and the best abstracts will be selected for poster presentation. There will be a prize for the best student poster and the best postdoc/fellow (non-student) poster.

The abstract submission deadline is noon on 10 February 2017. More information and guidelines for submitting an abstract are available on the website. Any questions should be directed to Serena Briant.

Everyone in RDM is invited and encouraged to attend the symposium. Attendance is free and event registration is now open.

We want to hear about your news!
