Events calendar
The CRUK Convergence Science Centre is a partnership between Imperial College London and The Institute of Cancer Research. In collaboration with our international partners we arrange a regular international seminar 'Converging on Cancer' on the topic of interdisciplinary cancer research. Our partners are
In this series, we bring together speakers from across these institutions to present their research and how they use convergence science to answer cancer-related questions.
Thursday 3rd July, 10-11am BST, 11-12pm CEST, 5-6pm SGT
This event will be chaired by Prof Kristijan Ramadan, from Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, NTU.
Imaging Life and Death - Novel MRI Methods for Detection of Cellular Function and Metabolism
Prof. Schilling conducts research in the field of translational molecular imaging. His research focusses on the development of novel methods in the area of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Together with his group he characterizes and validates imaging biomarkers. Interdisciplinarity is an essential characteristic of this area of research which combines the development of physical methods, the chemical characterization and synthesis of molecular sensors, as well as the investigation of biological and medical research questions.
Title: TBC
Dr Max Douglas is the Telomere Biology Group lead within the Division of Cell and Molecular Biology at the ICR. His laboratory studies how telomeres are duplicated and processed each cell cycle, using a combination of biochemistry, biophysics and genetics.
