Register below for our next Division of Medicine ECR Network Research Culture Seminar: 'Science Communication' Prof Christina Pagel (Prof. Christina Pagel - @chrischirp.bsky.social) Professor of Operational Research Department of Mathematics, UCL eventbrite.co.uk/e/science-comm… We are really looking forward to this one!

Why does the time taken from idea, through grant writing, recruitment, and actual research to final publication in academia, take as long as it takes industry to develop and market a new medicine?

Worst case scenario of course. But still.

Definitely a major factor.

Happy to be back at UCL #London joining UCLBiochemEng as an associate professor! It will be great to start working soon with lovely talented colleagues in #Synbio #Engbio #metabolic #bioprocess #engineering #biocatalysis
