Huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our International Women’s Day event on Monday 8th March.
We heard from six inspirational speakers who spoke about their journeys in academia, struggles they’ve overcome and the important research they’re undertaking for SNES. We had over 100 people in attendance and a fascinating, engaging discussion following the talks.
Speakers:
Hannah Davis – Researcher and Lecturer in Animal Science/Agriculture
Chiara Maniaci – BBSRC Discovery Fellow
Pip Moore – Professor of Marine Science
Evelyn Jensen – Lecturer in Molecular Ecology
Margaret Adesugba – Postgraduate Researcher Women in Rural Areas in Nigeria
Hannah Budge – Postgraduate Researcher Women in Agriculture in the Scottish Islands
A challenged world is an alert world and from challenge comes change.
So let’s all choose to challenge. #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021
