PoPLaR status and plans

→ Europe/London
Description

The PoPLaR In-Person Meeting will take place on the 24th February at the University of Birmingham.

The meeting will be held in Room WX1.71 in the IBR West, an extension of the Medical School. The meeting will start at 10:30. When you arrive at the main Medical School entrance, walk to the left of the building (past the car parks) until you reach a glass corridor on the right-hand side, where we will provide you access to the meeting room. It is best to arrive early as the room can be tricky to find, and we will start promptly at 10:30. Any early arrivals are free to grab coffee and snacks at the Med School Cafe. If you have any problems, please email Jason (j.parsons.3@bham.ac.uk).
