Tough At The Top

Head down to the Wellcome Collection to debate whether there have ever been enough women in science?

What about the remarkable individuals featured in 'From Atoms to Patterns'? And are we ignoring important differences between the sexes as we try to resolve why there are so few women working in science today? Join our guests to debate these issues and more.

Speakers at the event will be Helena Cronin, author of 'The Ant and the Peacock: Altruism and sexual selection from Darwin to today'; Georgina Ferry, science writer and broadcaster, author of 'Dorothy Hodgkin: A life' and Julia Goodfellow, Vice-Chancellor, University of Kent

This unique event is taking place on Wednesday May 15th from 7pm to 8.30pm.
