This seminar series is organised by Monica Tsimbouri (Biology) & Andres Alba Perez (Engineering), it offers a weekly seminar (Tuesdays 10-11) for external and internal speakers to showcase their research to the Biomaterials Community at the University of Glasgow.



At the core of the Biomaterials community in Glasgow are the Centre for Cell Engineering at the College of Medical, Veterinary & Life Sciences, and the Research Division Biomedical Engineering at the College for Science and Engineering.
