We are pleased to confirm the programme for the Mathematics in Life Sciences (MiLS) meeting on "Mathematical models of gene regulatory networks", which will take place on 18 March 2026 at the University of Nottingham (University Park Campus) in the School of Physics (number 22 on the campus map). Directions to the University Park Campus (including cycling facilities, bicycle routes, bus and tram lines) can be found here.
Attendance to the meeting is free of charge, but we kindly ask you to register your intention to attend by completing the registration form.
We look forward to welcoming you in Nottingham.
