Professor Val Gibson, the University’s Equality Champion focusing on STEMM subjects, said: “International Women’s Day is an opportunity to reflect and celebrate the many contributions of women to the University’s education and research, including to our collaborations across the world. It is particularly poignant at a time when family, friends and colleagues may be separated and our interactions occur via a virtual setting. It is from this space that I send a huge thank you to all who actively contribute to gender equality, and diversity and inclusion, and the women who make Cambridge such a wonderful place to work.
