The Royal Society of Chemistry and Chemical Research Society of India (CRSI), in their joint endeavour to promote exchange of ideas and knowledge in chemical sciences research and enable networking opportunities for researchers, have been conducting conferences at reputed universities across the UK and India.
The year 2023 marks the 5th RSC-CRSI Joint Symposium, a two-part series, the second of which is hosted by the University of Bristol, with ‘Chemical Biology’ as its central theme.
About The Symposia On Chemical Biology
The aim of the symposia is to bring together the UK and Indian community working in the field of chemical biology for a day of talks and discussions.
Date: September 14, 2023
Time: 09:30 - 5:00pm
Venue: University of Bristol
Registration Details
Registration for the symposia is free and on a first-come-first-serve basis, and can be accessed here. Refreshments & lunch will be provided to all the attendees, travel costs will have to covered by the attendees.
We look forward to welcoming you at Bristol this September.
