Imperial is in San Francisco for SF Tech Week 2026.
As a world leader in deep tech research in frontier areas like quantum and AI, we’re excited to host events and meet partners in the Bay Area this week.
Our Imperial Enterprise Lab Venture Trek will introduce our most exciting founders to key stakeholders.
And through Imperial Global USA, we’re building a bridge between WestTech London and Silicon Valley, encouraging a flow of ideas, talent and capital.
Let's get started!

🎉We’re #1!
Delighted to share that @imperialcollege's Department of Chemical Engineering has been ranked first in the UK by @thetimes Good University Guide 2027.
A brilliant achievement, and one built over many years through the ambition, dedication, and hard work of our staff and students!
Imagine if we could build an atlas of human immune responses to candidate vaccines...
By understanding how the human immune system responds to a wide range of pathogens, researchers at Imperial are helping identify vulnerabilities, predict responses and strengthen preparedness for future outbreaks.
Read Professor Robin Shattock's article 🔗 imperial.ac.uk/Stories/build…
Synthetic biology offers malicious actors a toolbox to threaten the environment and human lives. But it also contains the weapons to fight back.
From faster diagnostics to new vaccines and monitoring tools, synthetic biology is opening up powerful new possibilities for biosecurity.
Imperial's Professor Karen Polizzi explores how our researchers are harnessing these advances to help build a safer, more resilient future.
🔗 imperial.ac.uk/Stories/harne…
Biosecurity threats are increasing, but if we design early-detection systems based entirely on what we already know, there will be gaps that leave populations vulnerable to the next emerging pathogen.
As we prepare to lead the biosecurity conversation at UNGA, Professor Graham Cooke makes the case for a new approach to surveillance that could strengthen global biosecurity and help the world respond faster to future outbreaks.
