She would also be pleased to discuss the latest in the field of stem cells research for all those interested in the subject.

About Prof. Philpott's talk:
For ages, women have faced systematic exclusion from scientific inquiry, often overlooked as both participants and subjects. Anna Philpott will take us through her remarkable journey as a researcher and scientific leader, offering her perspective and insights along the way. She will talk about the profound impact women can make when leading scientific teams.
