Professor Sir Paul Nurse, will be delivering a lecture entitled ‘What is Life?’ (abstract below).

In this lecture I consider the question “What is Life?” by discussing five great ideas of biology, ranging from the ‘Cell’ to ‘the Logic of Life’. By considering these concepts a direction of travel is set towards a definition of life.
