Milner Seminars
Our seminar series is designed to facilitate interdisciplinary connections and provide a range of insights on disease and therapeutic approaches. Seminars include speakers from both academia and industry/biotech, each addressing a common theme, and are followed by networking over refreshments. To encourage informal discussion, these events are held in person at the Jeffrey Cheah Biomedical Centre. For our national and international delegates, many of the talks will later become available to view on our YouTube channel
