Three Medical Research Council Units in Scotland have set up an exchange seminar programme for their PhD students. The MRC Protein Phosphorylation Unit at Dundee, the MRC Human Genetics Unit at Edinburgh and the MRC Human Reproductive Sciences Unit in Edinburgh have invited a final year PhD student from each of the other Units to present a seminar. The aims are to give the students the experience of presenting their work to a completely different audience, hone their presentation skills and share experiences with their counterparts in the other Units.
The MRC Protein Phosphorylation Unit will host a lecture on February 10th by Emmanouil Stavrou from the MRC Human Reproductive Sciences Unit, Edinburgh entitled ‘Regulation of FOXO transcription factors by gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)' and a lecture on March 2nd by Rachel Rigby from the MRC Human Genetics Unit, Edinburgh entitled ‘Ribonuclease H2, RNA:DNA hybrids and the innate immune response'. Conversely, Hilary Smith and Laura Pearce from the MRC Protein Phosphorylation Unit will give lectures at the MRC Human Genetics Unit and the MRC Human Reproductive Sciences Unit, respectively.
