Facilities and Technician Showcase
We held a very successful Facilities and Technician showcase here at Warwick on Weds 22nd May. There was lots of posterboard displays to show the various facilities we have here at Warwick as well as a set of short talks from technicians. The networking event was well attended and the short talks proved to be a valuable learning experience for many technicians.
The showcase was aimed at any researchers (Masters to PI) that wish to find out the latest developments in technology and what our technical staff are working on, technical staff who wish to see what happens in other departments and anyone who is interested more generally in the sciences at Warwick.
