Meetings venues

Meetings can be held in academic departments or institutions, or at the sites of UK pharmaceutical companies. Lecture theatres capable of accommodating 50-100 registrants should be available, and preferably with nearby space or rooms for on-site registration, tea and coffee and other opportunities for registrants to meet each other and discuss their research.

The Autumn scientific meeting each year is immediately followed by the Association's Annual General Meeting, and, in order to allow as many members to attend as possible, will normally be held in London. The programme will otherwise attempt to achieve a reasonable geographic spread across the UK.
