THUMBS UP: GARVIN INSTITUTE OPEN DAY 2010
Join some of the sharpest minds in science and medicine to discuss some very important topics at the Garvin Institute this month. Or just walk in to see the amazing interior design of the building that looks like a set from a sci-fi movie. Don’t miss the panel discussion What Will it Take to Cure Cancer with Garvin researchers Prof Roger Daly, Dr Alex Swarbrick, Dr Lisa Horvath and oncologist Dr Sue Pendlebury from St Vincent’s Hospital. This will be followed by talks that will give the public an idea of the kind of research Garvin has been undertaking in diseases like diabetes, osteoporosis, eating disorders, hearing loss, asthma, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
