Description

VCCC MONDAY LUNCH LIVE EVENT

One million new papers are listed in PubMed every year. Ninety per cent of preclinical cancer research cannot be reproduced. Professor David Vaux, Deputy Director and Joint Division Head of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research, will delve into why this might be so, and how you can pick the 10 per cent of papers that are worth reading.

Come join us for a thought-provoking session with Prof David Vaux, whose research focus is in the field of programmed cell death/apoptsis, but also has interests in research integrity and the seamier side of science.

Introduction and welcome by Professor Grant McArthur

Light lunch served from 12.30pm

Presentation: 1pm- 2pm
