Seminar by Prof Jenny Nicholas from the University of Edinburgh on investigating early human developmental processes.
Prof Jenny Nicholas is coming to the LSI Seminar Rooms A & B on Wednesday 11 November, for a talk titled Investigating early human developmental processes. She's visiting from the Institute of Genetics and Cancer at the University of Edinburgh, so she's travelling down from Scotland for the day.
The talk sits right in the early days of human life. The title gives it away: it's about the processes that shape how a human develops in those first critical stages, and Nicholas will be walking through her work on that. If you've got any interest in genetics or how we actually get from a single cell to something recognisable, this is exactly the kind of thing she does.
It's part of the Living Systems Institute's distinguished speaker series, which is the LSI's way of bringing researchers in from other universities to present their work to the community here in Exeter. It's not a one-off; the series is built around these kinds of visits, so this is one of several talks the LSI puts on throughout the year. The format is pretty straightforward: a guest researcher comes in, presents their latest findings, and opens it up to the room.

It runs from 12:00 to 13:00, so it's a lunchtime slot. If you're around the university on a Wednesday, it's an hour you can fit in without clearing your whole afternoon. The talk is in LSI Seminar Rooms A & B, and it's free to attend.
