There's nothing quite like getting all your ducks in a row 🦆 And that's exactly what we did yesterday during a wonderful afternoon of learning, sharing, and supporting each other, and we even got to experience the power of LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® building our ideas (and some LEGO ducks) along the way. It was amazing to see a full room with such a diverse group of women, from placement students just starting their journey to those well-established in their careers. A special shoutout to everyone who contributed to the vibrant discussions and for making this a truly collaborative experience. We're looking forward to more events like this to keep inspiring and connecting women in STEM. #STEM #womeninSTEM #careerdevelopment #community #careerprogression #STEM Janine Chandler FRSA Debora Bogani CSci MRSB Lucy Kennedy Susanna Fawcett

Decoding quantum computing 💻 We know quantum computing to be a challenging concept to grasp. So imagine our excitement when The Times Science Editor, Ben Spencer, broke it down in a fantastic article, demystifying the topic and explaining why it's set to transform our world. It was also exciting to see Harwell Campus recognised as a pivotal site for this ground breaking work, with the National Quantum Computing Centre soon to open. This £140 million investment will position the UK at the forefront of global tech innovation. Curious about what makes quantum computing so special?

Did you spot us? 🛰 It was so exciting to see Astroscale featured on BBC's The Sky at Night last night on BBC Four. Astroscale's mission to develop innovative solutions for space debris removal is crucial to the future of space exploration, and being based at Harwell perfectly positions them to collaborate with other key players in the space industry, such as the European Space Agency - ESA. Congrats on the feature, Astroscale! We'll look forward to welcoming the BBC to campus in the future to document the incredible innovation happening on campus.
