Although Jugnoo has been my role model for scientific and clinical skills, I’ve valued her as a role model for more generic behaviours: professionalism, courtesy, and rigorous thinking. She has a sure moral compass.. which generates such respect and I and others have been truly lucky to have her as a role model” and Mariya Moosajee said “Jugnoo is an honest, strong, intelligent, wise, and caring leading clinician scientist. She is an amazing role model for early career clinical academics, and we need more junior individuals to follow in her footsteps.

Jugnoo is an honest, strong, intelligent, wise, and caring leading clinician scientist in the field of Paediatric Ophthalmology. I think she is an amazing role model for early career linical academics, and we need to improve her visibility to encourage more junior individuals to follow in her footsteps. 

It is an honour to be part of this fantastic celebration of the power of role models. I am exceptionally fortunate to have had some amazing female and male mentors as my role models throughout my career - I consider myself to be part of an unstoppable ‘chain reaction’ for progress.
