Patients desperately need new medicines. What are we doing about it?
Fellows are invited to attend the annual AMS South East Region Scientific Lecture which will be given by Professor Chas Bountra, Professor of Translational Medicine and Associate Member, Department of Pharmacology, University of Oxford. The lecture will be followed by a drinks reception and dinner for local Academy Fellows and their guests. The evening will also include a presentation about the Radcliffe Observatory.
The event will take place at Green Templeton College on Monday 13 November 2017.
