Scottish Centre for Macromolecular Imaging

After a successful first year in 2021, the early career researcher-led discussion group returns for 2023. The sessions are organised by students and postdocs from across the SCMI consortium and are open to interested researchers from consortium members universities:

• University of Dundee
• University of Edinburgh
• University of Glasgow
• University of St Andrews

The sessions are running weekly on Wednesdays at 2pm starting 13th September for 10 weeks. All sessions take place online using Zoom and the format remains unchanged, with 30-40 min talks from experts, followed by time for questions and an open discussion on the topic. New for this year, the course tutors are also drawn from consortium member universities.
