ABOUT THE THOMAS YOUNG CENTRE

The Thomas Young Centre (TYC) is an interdisciplinary community of London research groups working to address challenges of society and industry through materials modelling and the theory and simulation of materials. With about 80 participating groups, and ambitious programmes of events and graduate courses, we are a supportive community for research students and young researchers, a source of new collaborations for visiting scientists, and a long-term partner for business and government.

MAPS AND MEETING PLACES

TYC meetings are held at several different places in the participating institutions. These pages will help you find the most common meeting places.

TRAVEL

London is one of the easiest-to-reach places in the world. These pages give guidance about coming to central London, and about travelling within central London to the participating institutions of TYC.

TYC MANAGEMENT

In accordance with the Constitution of the TYC, the management structure consists of an Executive Committee, comprising representatives of the participating institutions, and an International Advisory Board. Day-to-day management is the responsibility of the TYC Director, supported by a Deputy Director and by the Chair of the Executive Committee. Much of the practical work is carried out by Working Groups, which have their own nominated chairs. In addition, there is local management at some of the participating institutions.
