SUMMARY:NC3Rs/Innovate UK workshop: Delivering the Government’s alternative methods strategy – Pharmacokinetic and cardiovascular safety studies
DESCRIPTION:Advances in in vitro and in silico approaches are reshaping drug development by improving the prediction of efficacy\, safety and pharmacokinetics. This workshop will focus on two priority targets identified in the UK Government’s 2025 alternative methods strategy: reducing reliance on animal studies in pharmacokinetic and cardiovascular safety studies. \n\n\n\nSessions will bring together scientists and stakeholders to discuss the current landscape and identify gaps and opportunities where replacement technologies could improve study outcomes\, increase human relevance and minimise animal use. The outputs will help to define how the Government targets can be delivered in practice through supporting research collaboration and innovation. \n\n\n\nRegistration closes: Friday 27 February.

SUMMARY:Data-driven Cancer Research Conference
DESCRIPTION:Our next event is taking place at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre from 24-26 February 2026. \n\n\n\nIntroduction and learning objectives \n\n\n\nBuilding on the success of our sold-out 2024 inaugural event\, we’ve expanded the conference to a three-day programme. We’ll be exploring the future of data-enabled cancer research\, highlighting the transformational role of emerging tools and technologies in advancing our understanding of cancer. Each day is dedicated to a specific theme: \n\n\n\n\nDay 1 – Horizon scanning technologies with quantum sensing\, quantum imaging and quantum computation as exemplars\n\n\n\nDay 2 – Revolutionising cancer research: the transformative role of AI\n\n\n\nDay 3 – Personalising cancer medicine: the power of health data\n\n\n\n\nThroughout the event\, we will also focus on how we can build vital trust and transparency regarding the use of patient data through patient and public involvement and engagement. Additionally\, we’ll work together to address data solutions to shared challenges in children’s and young people’s cancers. \n\n\n\nThis is a must-attend event for anyone working in cancer research\, data science\, bioinformatics\, computational oncology\, computer science\, mathematics or statistics\, including those working at the interface between these disciplines. The event is open to researchers from all career stages from across the world.

SUMMARY:LMB Seminar: One or two membranes? 
DESCRIPTION:Investigating the transition between monoderm and diderm cell envelopes across the Tree of Bacteria – In person only.\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Simonetta Gribaldo\, Institut Pasteur \n\n\n\nThe cell envelope is one of the oldest and most fundamental biological structures\, and a major target of antimicrobials. Bacteria can have radically different envelopes\, containing either one (monoderm) or two (diderm) membranes\, generally known as Gram-positives and Gram-negatives. How and why such dramatic transition occurred has remained a major open question in evolutionary biology. In my talk\, I will present recent data where we addressed this issue by merging large-scale computational analyses with experimental evolution using a new bacterial model at the interface between diderms and monoderms. Our results challenge established paradigms and propose a hypothesis on how the monoderm/diderm transition might have occurred. \n\n\n\nMax Perutz Lecture Theatre\, LMB and Webinar.
