Presentations from the H2FC Research Forum, Sept 2016

The 4^th H2FC SUPERGEN Hub Research Forum was hosted by Professor John Irvine at the University of St-Andrews, September 2016. Twenty-two leading researchers from Universities across the United Kingdom presented the latest developments in their projects funded by or through the Hub. The presentations from this Forum have been made available for download (see below). They can also be found under the relevant Research Projects pages, where more information on the projects is made available.
