Location: Institute for Manufacturing (IfM), University of Cambridge, 17 Charles Babbage Rd, Cambridge CB3 0FS

 

The June meeting of the Cambridge New Therapeutics Forum (CamNTF) focuses around drug delivery and is now open for registration. This scientific forum is open to all scientists interested in research and development of new therapeutics in Cambridge and the local area, including scientists at the University, hospitals, and industry. The aim is to promote interactions between scientists at these organisations to improve opportunities for biotechnology R&D.

 

This session is hosted by the Cambridge Academy of Therapeutic Sciences (CATS). Hear from Professor Sir Mark Welland about some of his research around drug delivery using nanotechnology as well as talks from Michelle Teplensky (targeting cancer therapeutics) and Dan Strange from TTP (intranasal drug delivery to the CNS).

 

Attendance is free and open to all. Register here
