EBB SEMINAR ON MONDAY, 4 FEBRUARY 2019

Prof. Stuart Newman (NYMC) will give EEB departmental seminar on Feb 4th, entitled: "Physico-genetics of development and the predictability of morphological evolution" (3pm, ENR2, Rm S107).

Dr Newman's research integrates cellular, molecular, and physical aspects of development and evolution, an area to which he has made many pioneering contributions. Other interests include protein structure-function relationships and the social and cultural aspects of biological research and technology.
