We hosted our first in a new series of cross-hub webinars to allow ECRs from all the Supergen Hubs to connect and share their exciting projects! This was a great chance to see what research is happening across the whole Supergen network and potentially allow ECRs to find some new opportunities for cross-hub collaboration.

Please find below the speakers for the event.
