Opening of the Henry Wellcome Laboratories for Cellular Research, UCL
On 20 February 2004, Philip Cohen opened the Henry Wellcome Laboratories for Cellular Research in the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at UCL. Philip and Tricia are former students of the Department.
The ceremony was attended by the Provost, Vice-Provost of Biomedicine, Dean of Life Sciences, the Wellcome Trust, guests and staff.
Funding from the Wellcome Trust, HEFCE and UCL have transformed the derelict sub-basement of the Darwin building into a suite of state-of-the-art laboratories. Embryonic stem cells, limb-regeneration, prions, DNA recombination, heart disease, adverse drug reactions, diabetes and protein-ligand interactions are just some of the exciting areas of research to benefit from the improved infra-structure provided by the new laboratories.
The opening was followed by an enjoyable dinner with staff members of the Biochemistry Department who included, Philip and Tricia's former PhD Supervisors, Michael Rosemeyer and Ernie Huehns.
