Welcome to the London Metabolism Club!
The London Metabolism Club (LMC) provides a platform for promoting basic and applied research on cellular metabolism in health and disease with the specific objectives to:
- establish a forum for discussing the most recent advances in metabolic research;
- provide a network for collaborative links among academic groups working in the field of cellular metabolism;
- stimulate interdisciplinary collaborations and initiatives, and share technical expertise.
We have regular club meetings with two talks by invited speakers, followed by discussion and networking in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.听听There are also slots available for Early Career Researcher Talks.听听
(Early Career Researcher Talk format: five minutes and two slides.听 Early Career Researcher in this context means a current PhD student or someone who received their PhD within the last five years.)
