Abstract: This year, we were delighted to have Dr Marc Kirschner deliver the second King Lectures in Biomedical Sciences. He visited the college for a week and gave scientific seminars at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute on 2 May, and at the MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology on 4 May. Dr Kirschner discussed his work aimed at understanding cell types and cell states in development. On 5 May, the King Lecture entitled “The Uniqueness of Biological Understanding” was attended by academics from all over Cambridge. The lecture focused on aspects of evolution, highlighting some of Dr Kirschner’s key findings. Attending the subsequent dinner at Clare Hall were many notable scientists in the biomedical area and senior members of the University.
