We're very pleased to announce our new PhD scholarships for Black heritage candidates are open for applications until 19th March
If anyone is able to share a copy of the now offline FDA guidance on including underrepresented populations in clinical trials with me I’d be very grateful. Apparently ensuring medications work for women is part of the “woke” agenda now.
Our director Paul Nurse chatted to Robert Peston and Steph McGovern on The Rest is Money about science funding this week.
Paul discussed what it will take for the UK to become a ‘Science Superpower,’ as well as his story of discovering his own genetic history.

A brilliant day at KCL's inaugural research culture symposium learning about sector developments and catching up with colleagues old and new. I left inspired and excited for our work at the Crick.
