THOMAS YOUNG CENTRE EVENTS

The Thomas Young Centre organises many different kinds of scientific events on the theory and simulation of materials, including Highlight Seminars, Soirees and Workshops...

See our photo gallery of previous events,highlights and our new and growing TYC Hall of Fame!

Highlight Seminars: Short seminars from high profile experts

Soirees: Lively and social events with two speakers on complementary topics giving short talks and prompting discussion with the audience.

Workshops: In depth events, tackling subjects or techniques in more depth. Often used for training purposes and often featuring world-leading specialists.

Local: Events held at a TYC campus for local members, for example, TYC@UCL lunchtime get-togethers feature short talks from students and acadmics at UCL, and a chance to catch up with colleagues over lunch.
