We’re delighted to welcome Professor Richard Reece as our new Society Chair, taking over from Professor Sheila Graham who stepped down last week. We look forward to working alongside Richard to support the molecular bioscience community.

The IUBMB (International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology) promotes research and education in biochemistry and molecular biology and gives particular attention to promoting opportunities for trainees and providing opportunities in areas where biomolecular sciences are less well developed. IUBMB are offering short-term fellowships allowing ECRs to travel to learn state-of-the-art techniques that are not readily available in their own countries. Interested in this opportunity? The deadline to apply is 1 August. Find out more: https://ow.ly/H0ys50Sy65V
