BMS MCS Joint Meeting - Keble College, Oxford


Dear all,

I would like to encourage you all to attend our next meeting in Oxford. This is a joint meeting with the BMS and MCS, and a good opportunity to celebrate our societies developing relationship, kicking off with a 4th July celebration! It  promises to be a great event in a really good setting, covering the topics that will appeal to many areas of microcirculation and vascular biology. There are grants available for BMS and MCS student members to attend. Please sign up to stay in the conference venue, Keble College. The cost represents a good deal for such an historical site within the city, and includes all meals as well as the conference dinner in a lovely old college. All speakers and officers of the societies will be staying there so it will be a good venue for networking. The BMS has had to underwrite cost of accommodation, meaning your society will have to pay for empty rooms, so please support your committee & local organisers and help to fill it!

The deadline for abstract submission is end of this month, one week to go, so there is still time to arrange your latest ideas and join the fun.

We are really excited about adopting Microcirculation as our nominated journal, and look forward to closer links between BMS and MCS as a result. Breaking news! I have just learned that the Australia and New Zealand Microcirculation Society are joining us as co-sponsors of the journal, so our international family continues to expand!!

As another busy term draws to a close, I hope you manage to have a restful break. Happy Easter!
