There are vacancies on the branch committee and we would welcome nominations or enquiries from anyone interested in joining the committee.

The AGM will be followed by a talk given by Dr Douglas Wilson on Biological Rhythms in Health and Disease.  Members will recall a paper in Biologist (November 2009) by Dr Wilson and his colleagues on this subject and this talk will be concerned with blood pressure monitoring, screening and treatment in cardiovascular disease.  Douglas is President of the South Wales Branch and is presently based at the Wolfson Institute, Queens Campus,  Durham University
