About Liverpool
Liverpool recently celebrated its 800th birthday in style by becoming the European Capital of Culture in 2008. It is a vibrant city that is rich with culture, boasting many of the UK’s top museums and art galleries, as well as a long and successful music and sporting heritage. Many of the new hotels, restaurants and bars are housed in historic buildings of grand architecture.
Liverpool has built an unrivaled reputation for the quality of its after‐work relaxation options. So – we look forward to seeing you in Liverpool in 2015, for what we are sure will be a fantastic
scientific and social exchange. The popular sponsored Awards will receive their usual high profile at a banquet to be held in the famous Anglican Cathedral.
