Our next 'Topic for Discussion'
Could bacteria hold the key to tackling plastic waste? Scientists have identified a ‘Pac-Man enzyme’ capable of digesting certain plastics. Experiments revealed that biodegradable materials vanished from soil within a year, unlike conventional plastics showing little deterioration. Join our Bio-Enrichment session to explore how!

What is Endometriosis?
Endometriosis is a life-long condition, affecting 1 in 10 women of reproductive age in the UK. The cause is unknown and there is no definite cure. Join us in this thought-provoking seminar to discuss this important condition.
Seizures and Epilepsy
In this MED:SEM, we'll look at the nature of partial and generalised seizures, explain how a diagnosis of epilepsy is made and with reference to clinical cases, how it can be managed with surgery & anticonvulsants.
Skeleton, Bones and Joints
In this seminar, we'll examine a variety of organisms to compare internal and external skeletons, learn how cartilage turns into bone and crucially, what happens when bones and joints become diseased or fractured.
