Aquatic, Behavioural & Evolutionary Biology (ABEB), Bioinformatics, Parasitology and Ecology Research Group Seminar Series

 

This seminar series is organised by three research groups within IBERS (ABEB, Bioinformatics and Parasitology groups) and runs every Friday at 12:00 at either the Penglais or Gogerddan Campuses. 

Seminars are presented by IBERS staff, post graduate students and post-doctoral fellows as well as invited scientists engaged in activities relevant to the three research groups.

A listing of past and future seminars is provided (along with venue).  Please check listing regularly for seminar updates. 

If you are interested in signing up to the ABEB, Bioinformatics or Parasitology email listings (seminar reminders are sent to members), please contact Dr Pippa Moore (ABEB), Dr Martin Swain (Bioinformatics) or Dr. Iain Chalmers (Parasitology).
