Girl Profs
Girl Profs celebrates the success of women professors. Only 31% of professors in the UK are women, despite there being almost equal numbers of men and women starting off on an academic career - at Girl Profs, we're doing our bit to fix that leaky pipeline, one role model at a time. Our conversations illustrate the reality of women's career paths that are often far from straightfoward. Expect honest and authentic conversations about becoming and being a Girl Prof.
