The Physics of Life Summer School now in its fifth edition, is an immersive, interdisciplinary program designed for early-career researchers (PhDs up to postdocs) who are interested in the powerful role physics plays in understanding and solving biological problems. Sponsored by the Wellcome Trust and held in partnership with Durham University's Biological Sciences Institute (BSI), the Institute of Physics Biological Physics Group (IoP BPG), and British Biophysical Society (BBS), the program offers a unique opportunity to explore how fundamental physical principles apply across biological systems—from molecules to organisms to disease.
The summer school will take place at Durham University. Lectures and sessions will be held on the science site at Durham University within the Palatine Centre, accommodation will be at nearby Hatfield College (10-15 minute walk). Standard single college rooms with en-suites and full English breakfast will be provided. Check in is from 2pm and check out from 10am. For location information, see Maps and directions.
