We’re excited to announce that our FoldNetUK Symposium will take place on 2 September 2026 at the University of Edinburgh (exact location details listed above). This year’s theme, Innovating Together, will bring people together with interests in foldamers and their applications: from biological molecules, biomimetics, to entirely synthetic systems; under one roof, for a jam packed day of insights, networking, and inspiration. Mark your calendars and register your attendance as soon as possible, as we have a limited number of spaces! Programme schedule and full speaker line-up to be announced shortly.
We are also pleased to let you know that we’ll be offering the following:
- Subsidised travel and accommodation.
Thanks to the EPSRC, travel and accommodation will be subsidised for all attendees based at UK institutions to a fixed value of £120 per person. Please keep your travel and accommodation receipts. - Posters and an early career researcher panel/event will form part of the programme, so please let your research group know about this event.
Please circulate this invitation more broadly within your research groups, nationally, and internationally to those who might be interested.
If you have any questions, please contact FoldNetUK@KCL.ac.uk
