To celebrate International Day of Women and Girls in Science (11 February 2024), International Women’s Day (08 March 2024), and International Men’s Day (19 November 2024) we have collected a series of contributions from Research, Teaching and Professional staff and students in the Division of Medicine, discussing what inspired them to study and work in STEM and what advice they have for anyone who wants to pursue a similar career.
