Rising Stars

Welcome

Rising Stars celebrates and supports the rising stars within underrepresented groups in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects. It is a grassroots initiative led by researchers in the UK Materials Science community, and is primarily targeted at Early Career Researchers (whether PhD student, post-doc or faculty) in Materials Science.

Our aim is to support researchers to not only work but to thrive in their research community, to address the diversity gap within STEM research, and to enhance the diversity of thought and innovation. For more information see our upcoming or previous events.

If you want to get in touch, please contact one of the Rising Stars team: Dr Alexandra Ramadan, Dr Katie Shanks, Dr Jess Wade or Dr Lucy Whalley .
