MRes in Computational Cell Biophysics Programme (Advert)
We are excited to introduce a new programme the MRes in Computational Cell Biophysics which takes a quantitative, interdisciplinary, approach to problems in cell biology. The new MRes is hosted by the Laboratory for Molecular Cell Biology (LMCB) at UCL.
Attached, you will find our programme poster. We would be grateful if you could share this opportunity with final year BSc students who might be interested in pursuing advanced studies in this field.
To learn more, we invite you to attend an information session on the programme. We are hosting two sessions on April 9th, at 11:30am and 4:30pm. You can join via the links below.

Join a Cross-Departmental Focus Group on Assessment & Feedback
We’re continuing our efforts to enhance assessment and feedback across the Faculty of Natural Sciences and need your input! Join a (cross-)departmental focus group to share your thoughts on exams, coursework, and feedback – your insights will help shape improvements for you and future students.
If you're interested, please register and provide your availability using the link below. Once we’ve received your responses, we’ll send you an invite early next week.
You’ll only need to attend one focus group, but selecting all available time slots will help with scheduling. As a thank-you, all participants will receive a lunch voucher.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Ioanna Papatsouma (i.papatsouma@imperial.ac.uk).
Best wishes,

Key Updates From ICU
Request from Department SSC meetings
We are trying to get a better overview of feedback gathered at Department SSC meetings, so we can keep track of issues raised by reps and key themes that we can work with the University on at faculty level. It would be great if you could share your minutes with myself so I can have a look at them, any questions please let me know.
Student Representation workshop of Imperial staff
The ICU Representation Team staff are delivering a workshop for Imperial staff to attend on Wednesday 30th April, 1pm-4pm.
The aim of this is to share our current approach to facilitating student representation and provide an opportunity for Imperial staff who work with student reps to share feedback on what impact they feel this makes in practice.
Full event description: Find out about our current work priorities, and the training and support we provide for Undergraduate and Postgraduate student representatives. We understand that in practice, staff and student representatives may face varied challenges when working in collaboration on improving the student experience at Imperial. This session will also be an opportunity to feedback to us on these challenges and input your ideas on how to develop our rep training & support further. We will also be providing a light lunch.
We are asking staff to sign up so we can account for lunch (staff should be able to log in on the top right with their Imperial shortcode login and password).
Let me know if you have any questions, thank you for your ongoing support.

New 100 seat space opens at the Abdus Salam Library
Library Services are pleased to announce the opening of a new Group Study Space on level 4 of the Abdus Salam Library. The area features over 100 study spaces in an array of different types of furniture such as 2, 4 and 6-seater meeting pods, standing desks and moveable furniture.
Whilst the main study furniture is bespoke and brand-new, we were very happy to be able to re-use a number of reclaimed whiteboards, a printer and a table and benches in the ‘tea-point’.
The ‘tea-point’ also includes a hot water boiler and cold vending machines.
Later in the year we will be adding to this space by opening two bookable group study rooms on the same floor.
We look forward to welcoming you to the space soon and please send your feedback to library@imperial.ac.uk.
