Physics of Medicine

Picture
The Physics of Medicine (2020-2023) is generously funded by The Rosetrees Trust. The new partnership between the Rosetrees Trust and Physics of Life is intended to significantly enhance clinical participation into the Physics of Life network. The aim is to create a sustainable, clinically-focused, Physics of Medicine network community - as part of the wider Physics of Life network by delivering a 3-year programme of multidisciplinary workshops linked to major clinical and biological challenges.

Physics of Medicine will therefore deliver a short series of 'Rosetrees Interdisciplinary Challenge Workshops' over the next 3 years covering key clinical challenges from the perspective of the Physics of Life, including but not limited to;
  • Neurodegenerative disease (Feb 2021)
  • Metastasis and resistance (Coming in Autumn 2021)
  • Anti-microbial resistance (Coming in early 2022)
  • Gut disorders (Autumn 2022)
  • Joint degeneration and 
  • Heart disease
