Rosetrees Trust: Physics of Medicine

The Physics of Medicine (2020-2023), led by Professor Stephen Smye 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.

As part of the Physics of Medicine network, a short series of six 'Rosetrees Interdisciplinary Challenge Workshops' are being delivered. Each  workshop covers a key clinical challenges from the perspective of the Physics of Life. For information on these workshops, including links to past events and talk recordings, please follow the below links: 

• Physics of Brains (November 2020)
• Neurodegenerative disease (Feb 2021)
• Metastasis and resistance (November 2021)
• Anti-microbial resistance (January 2022)
• Physics of Viruses (June 2022)
