Registered spaces for event are limited.

The Music Centre’s free all day festival showcasing some of the best of UOW’s musicians, ranging from ensembles to solo performers and covering a range of musical styles. A great way to celebrate an amazing year of music at Warwick.

The University Symphony Orchestra and Chorus join forces yet again to present their final concert of the season.

Featuring orchestral music by Tchaikovsky and Vaughan Williams.

Haydn’s Nelson Mass was one of the final six masses he composed and is considered a culmination of the best of his liturgical work.

All these masterpieces represent the bounteous and vast careers of three prolific composers spanning over 200 years.

As we strive to foster an inclusive environment and promote diversity in academic innovation and commercialisation activities, we are gathering a focus group committed to understanding the unique barriers that female academics may face in participating in these crucial endeavours.

Your insights will greatly contribute to shaping future policies and initiatives aimed at fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for academic innovation.

The discussion will be structured around exploring various factors that may impede female academics from actively participating in innovation or commercialisation ventures.

Please sign-up via Eventbrite and share with any colleagues you feel may be interested in contributing to the discussion.

Join your friends and colleagues at the Summer Social on the Piazza for food, drink and entertainment. Please register so we can send you a booking confirmation which you will need to get your food and drink.

Join us for a walk to look at pollinators, such as bees, and the flowers they are feeding on.

This event is organised by the Energy & Sustainability team.

Important guidance for all academics and researchers looking at using data from NHS and Health & Social Care sources in their research.

Jill Wood, Quality Assurance Manager for Warwick Clinical Trials Unit will lead you through the planning, processes and permissions needed to use data from NHS and Health and Social Care sources in research.

Abstract: We performed experiments involving indentation-retraction/relaxation to observe the viscoelastic properties of epithelial cells undergoing shape alterations. MDCK II cells cultured on flexible polydimethylsiloxane substrates underwent lateral stretching, resulting in increased cortex contractility and reduced excess surface area. Consequently, cells maintained their fluidity but became inherently stiffer. This behavior was consistent across demixed cell monolayers of ZO-1/2 double knockdown (dKD) cells, cells exposed to varying temperatures, and following cholesterol removal from the plasma membrane. Conversely, individually tested cells adhered to differently sized patches showed no significant rheological changes. By sacrificing excess surface area, cells gained the ability to respond to mechanical challenges without compromising their fluidity, thus acquiring newfound flexibility that elucidates the fluidity-stiffness relationship.

Our 3-week Warwick Summer School is running from 14 July - 3 August 2024.

We have a range of Summer School courses to choose from, all delivered by renowned academics from across the University and a number of high-profile guest speakers. The three-week course includes a combination of lectures, seminars, and study groups, with an optional assessment.

With a full social and cultural programme included alongside the academic programme, the Summer School offers undergraduate and postgraduate students from around the world the opportunity to learn and share insights from each other, and develop a network of like-minded people and even some lifelong friendships.

Our 10-night Pre-University Summer School is running 16-26 July 2024.

This programme is designed for 16-17 year old students, looking to experience university life with like-minded peers from around the world. There are three courses to choose from: Economics and Finance, Social Sciences or Science and Engineering, with each course delivered by Warwick academics.

Students will enjoy ten nights on Warwick’s campus, living alongside student ambassadors (current Warwick students), and will experience a great mix of academic and personal development sessions as well as social and cultural activities, including day trips to London and Oxford. 

Warwick Chemistry and Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) are jointly hosting the very first edition of the Warwick Battery Days at the University of Warwick, Coventry, on June 20-21. WBD 2024 will bring together experts from the experimental and computational battery research community as well as the from the industry, aiming to facilitate discussions on the current state-of-the-art in the field and the future directions based on industrial and societal needs.
