We had an excellent DNA seminar yesterday with inspiring talks. I'm looking forward to catching up on the ones I missed. Sorry but it wasn't possible to record my talks in the parallel stream.
We hosted an excellent and inspiring DNA seminar in Leicester. The recordings of the talks are now available in the Members' Room. Enjoy! (Note not all talks were recorded.) https://t.co/xcKXPj4dtA
