I strongly support workplace equality and diversity and actively promote equal opportunities for women in academia. 

I am passionate about promoting women in academia and reminding people of all the wonderful opportunities that being involved in the Athena mission has brought me.

As a student-turned-academic at Imperial, I have witnessed the recent impact of Athena SWAN; I am delighted to be able to help contribute to this transformation.  

Over the years I have developed a genuine interest in developing others. I mentor research staff and younger PIs – internally as part of our FoM Mentor Network and externally. This long-term investment toward the College makes sense to me as this is home where I want to develop my own future career. 

Advocate for EDI and in particular gender equity in Higher Education.  As a parent to two young children, I also have first-hand experience of the additional challenges women face in academia  

I am strongly committed to promote and support other researchers, especially early career researcher, in their pursuit of equal opportunities in academia. 

I have been proudly involved in contributing toward our EDI remit since joining Imperial in 2017.  

I have always been a strong advocate of equality in the workplace. I believe in supporting my colleagues in managing their careers and I am proud to be part of the mentorship scheme. 

I am interested in promoting work-life balance for academics’ wellbeing. 

Particularly interested in finding solutions to the challenges faced by early and mid-career researchers trying to balance science with family responsibilities and in developing new ways to acknowledge contributions that are often underappreciated.  

I am particularly interested in supporting female PhD students to progress and achieve a sustainable career in academia. 

I'm interested in widening participation across UG and PG studies. I designed and am academic lead for Pathways to Medicine, our UG widening participation in medicine programme co-funded by the Sutton Trust, and for our new Medical Schools Council WP summer school programme.  

Helping voice the concerns and needs of PhD students and post-docs in the division since 2015 with the aim of developing a work environment we can all excel in. First as a PhD student representative and now a post-doc representative. 

I’ve been at Imperial as an undergraduate, postgraduate, and member of staff. I’ve seen a lot of change in the Faculty, and I know that we can do more. 

Joined the department in 2015 as Senior Fellow, then Lecturer and now Senior Lecturer. Strongly support equal opportunities for women, parents and minorities in academia. Mum of 2, full time researcher and MSc coordinator 

An integral part of my role is helping to shape the culture in the Department.  As a working parent of four teenagers, I have been able to take advantage of the flexible working opportunities that Imperial College provides.  

Addressing inequalities of opportunity because of gender, race or disability is fundamental to creating a thriving community that delivers truly relevant and world-class research.  Our PCC is fully empowered to help make that happen.  

I act as a link between departments and central College, advising on good practice and raising awareness of activities. I volunteer as an Athena SWAN assessor.  

 Everyone benefits from a just, supportive and diverse working environment for all and I’m committed to leveraging data approaches to identify and overcome barriers to achieving this and to help create solutions which foster it.   

 I am proud to support our Department in being a welcoming and equitable place to work. I help communicate the great work our People and Culture Committee does for the advancement of equality, representation, and progression, for all.  

 I lead a bespoke programme of support for fellows and clinicians and ensure their views are represented widely across the College. I have extensive experience in working with and supporting early career researchers as well as leading departmental culture change via the implementation of Athena SWAN principles and action plans.  

I am delighted to act as a liaison between the Surgery and Cancer and MDR Departments which share many of the same aims and  have many of the same problems to solve. This has allowed us to work together on joint projects for the benefit of our staff and students.
