News

A celebration of  Danny Segal’s life is organized on Wednesday 16th March 2016 from 3.30pm in the Blackett Laboratory, Imperial College London.
The event will start with a number of talks, followed by an evening of music.
If you would like to attend, please register for lectures and/or reception.

In order to better administer this successful newsletter, it is now sent via Mailchimp. Apparently, there has been some spamfiltering, so please ask your neighbours if they have received their favorite monthly lecture!
