The #BeeYourBest team had a productive visit to Sheffield University and York University to discuss strategies for promoting inclusive and impactful science in educational settings. Creating a supportive environment for students and staff is vital for fostering student success, career advancement, and meaningful research.
During the visit, Prof. Beatrice had the honour of exploring Sheffield University’s teaching and research facilities with her mentor, Prof. Lorraine Maltby OBE. Their discussions included ideas on empowering the next generation of female leaders.
Meeting Prof. Alistair Boxall in person was a delightful and enlightening experience. The tour of his research group and laboratory was truly captivating.
From parent-friendly rooms to tailored curricula for the newer generation, it was great to see the future being pioneered at these special institutions.
Special thanks to Dr Kirit Wadhia for organizing the informative tours at both universities. His kindness and generosity were truly appreciated.
Watch this space for future updates.
Stay tuned for more updates as the #BEEYourBest journey continues!
