Today, IMB is delighted to welcome Professor Dame Carol Robinson and Professor Simon Newstead from the Kavli Institute for Nanoscience Discovery at the University of Oxford.
Their visit marks the beginning of a new partnership built on strong relationships, shared strengths and a commitment to collaborative, interdisciplinary science. By bringing people together across institutions and career stages, the partnership creates new opportunities for research collaboration, researcher mobility and training pathways across areas including brain health, infectious disease, antimicrobial resistance and next-generation biomaterials.
We look forward to the exciting opportunities this collaboration brings.
