The May meeting of the Cambridge New Therapeutics Forum (CamNTF) is now open for registration. This meeting will be hosted by the Cambridge Academy of Therapeutic Sciences and will be brought to you virtually. We are delighted to be joined on the 26th by four speakers from the medical technology community who will discuss their recent therapeutic advances in the field. We will be hearing from Professor George Malliaras from the University of Cambridge, Dr Jason Miranda from Galvani Bioelectronics and Drs Nathalie Virag and Kim Chaffin from Medtronic, as they give an overview of their latest developments.
Following the talks, we are delighted to have Professor Manohar Bance, Professor of Otology and Skull Base Surgery at the University of Cambridge, join us to chair a panel discussion with the speakers.
There will be an opportunity for questions after each of the talks and details of how to pose these will follow in the joining email after registration. The link to the meeting platform will be circulated prior to the event. Postdoctoral researchers are especially encouraged to join what is sure to be another very interesting evening of talks.
