The CPB Early Career Network has been launched and supported by CPB to help support early career researchers researchers at the university who are interested in interdisciplinary research at the intersection of biological/biomedical sciences and physical sciences. We are happy to welcome advanced PhD students, postdocs, and other researchers at the early stages of their careers.
If you are interested in presenting your project as a 10-15-minute chalk talk, don't hesitate to get in touch with the organising committee.
We encourage speakers to provide a broad introduction to their research topic to get everyone on the same page and to conclude with one or more challenges they are currently trying to overcome. The CPB ECR crowd is very interdisciplinary, curious, and friendly, and would love to learn more about your work, whether it be experimental or theoretical.
New CPB ECR members are welcome to join in person, on Slack (cpb-ecr.slack.com), and on our mailing list (physbiol-early-career@lists.cam.ac.uk).
