Understanding biomolecular interactions is central to solving many of the challenges we face. For example, understanding the causes of, and finding new treatments for diseases, developing new products (e.g., bioplastics, 3D printed devices), protecting our environment, and inventing new technologies (sensors, NMR drug detection, non-invasive scanning) all require an understanding of biomolecular interactions.
Many of our biggest scientific challenges, require researchers from different areas to work together collectively. One of the primary goals of BIC is to bring together such multi-disciplinary teams so they can work on many of the scientiifc challenges we face, in areas such as health, environment, materials food.
BIC supports and connects researchers through research symposia, seed grants, postgraduate funding and other activities which provide an environment where innovation and multi-discplinary research can thrive.
While BIC is based at the 厙ぴ勛圖, our 70+ membership include researchers from different New 厙ぴ勛圖universities, Crown Research Institutes and Callaghan Innovation, plus a growing number of international collaborators.
