Dear BSDB Member- February News!

With hopefully the worst of the winter behind us, we can all look forward to Spring and of course, the BSDB Spring Meeting, in Warwick, organised this year in collaboration with The Genetics Society. Highlights of the meeting will be talks from our 2020 Medal Winners, including Professor Tatjana Sauka-Spengler, winner of the Tickle Medal and Dr Wajid Jawaid, winner of the Beddington Medal. Congratulations to both!
The Waddington winner, is top secret, and not announced until their talk. Be there to see who has won our Society’s most prestigious prize!
TODAY is the deadline for Early Bird Registration

 

BSDB Annual General Meeting
The BSDB AGM will be held on the 17th March 18.05 – 19.05, in Warwick at the Spring Meeting (just before the party, which is also a highlight). This is your community and society, so if you have any important matters you’d like have discussed at the AGM, then please send an email in advance to BSDB.Secretary@ed.ac.uk

BSDB Committee Nominations
We will have four positions available on the BSDB committee this year, which will be voted on at the AGM. This includes three regular positions and a position for a postdoc representative. Please send nominations to BSDB.Secretary@ed.ac.uk. Nominators usually give a brief statement in support of their candidate at the AGM.

Newsletter
Our Communications Officer, Ben Steventon, is currently busy preparing the BSDB Newsletter, which is a proper account of all the BSDB news, so keep an eye out for that. Until then- we’ll see you at Warwick.
