BBSRC study tour
BBSRC study tours are intended primarily to be an opportunity for administrators from universities and BBSRC-sponsored institutes to gain an understanding of how BBSRC operates. They can also provide administrators with a forum for discussing topics of common interest with colleagues they may otherwise not always have the opportunity to meet. In addition they also provide BBSRC with a means of strengthening and maintaining the contacts and relationships they already enjoy with existing university and institute colleagues and the chance to forge new ones.
