Post-Genomic Partnership for Chemistry and Biology: 16 November 2001

Biology and Chemistry Departments have traditionally occupied separate buildings on campus -- at one time in the not too distant past, few universities managed to encourage mingling. A one-day symposium, organized by the UKLSC and RSC, aimed to address some of the issues involved in convincing biologists that chemistry is invaluable, and vice versa. The presentations demonstrated how a mixture of disciplines can achieve impressive results in the new post-genomic proteomic era.
