6th NoRCEL CONFERENCE: Chemical Informational Universe
Is life nothing but a large network of chemical reactions and cycles, endlessly recycling itself with ever greater complexity? Surely something else is involved! Just as writing communicates knowledge through language so the human genome conveys information to those that can read it...NEWSNoRCEL Astroscience Exploration Network ASEN
The Astroscience Exploration Network (ASEN) is NoRCEL’s latest innovative initiative and has the objective of creating an African Astroscience Hub. This...NEWSVirtual Frontiers of Sciences VI: Schedule – Saturday 12 March 2022
Sponsored by NoRCEL, in conjunction with the Astrobiology Society of Britain, the Royal Society of Biology and the Royal Society of Chemistry. We present another one of our popular science-in-society meetings, this time delving into the intricacies of differing Complex Systems. Our panel of international, eminent scientists look forward to sharing their extensive knowledge with you on Saturday the 12th March 2022.
