Event Summary
The change of Government, difficult economics circumstances, unease with aspects of the education system and the real threat to long term science funding are ensuring that 2010 is a critical year for biology.
Event description
The Society needs to ensure we represent the breadth of concerns and interests of the membership, both organisational and individual. We have a wealth of experience to draw on and we need to make best use of that resource. Our Fellows are all high achievers in their respective fields whether that be in industry, academia, government service, the voluntary sector, teaching or elsewhere and we are keen to use that collective experience more. With that in mind the Chief Executive will be holding a series of informal buffet lunches with small groups of 10-15 Fellows over the coming months, in round table format, to discuss specific issues of the day, the Society’s direction and any specific concerns Fellows may have.
The first three will be in London at our 9 Red Lion Court offices from 12:00 to 14:00 on the following dates:
Tuesday 14 September 2010
Tuesday 12 October 2010
Tuesday 9 November 2010
There will other London lunches as well as in other parts of the UK over the next year.
If you are a Fellow and would like to attend on any of the above dates please email or telephone Jennifer Crosk by 31 August 2010 to reserve a place on a first come first served basis.
