Nurturing the future leaders in biomedical research
Nurturing the future leaders in biomedical research
It is a great honour to run our annual Summer Studentships programme, which provides opportunities for undergraduates to experience working in a laboratory and to undertake their own research project – all whilst supporting additional support to our current and former Fellows!
Former Fellow, Professor Barry Potter, has been elected to an Honorary Fellowship of the British Pharmacological Society (BPS), the primary UK learned society concerned with research into drugs and their mechanism of action.
Professor John Iredale became the Lister Institute’s Chair in September 2022. A few months into the role, we caught up with him to hear his aspirations for his tenure.
The highlight of our year, as ever, was in awarding the Lister Prizes to our Fellows! In 2022, we received 82 applications and were in a position to award eight Fellowships – a new record for us.
Our new Chair of the Scientific Advisory Committee, Professor Julian Blow, chats with us about the highlights of his role and the ongoing work to select 2023's new Fellows.
The Annual Meeting is a fantastic opportunity for our members – including current and former Fellows, Governing Body members, Scientific Advisory Committee members, trustees, and staff – to unite in sharing and celebrating the work enabled by the Lister Institute.
