Over 70 people attended our second Women in Photochemistry Symposium, held on Wednesday 5 March at UCL. Nanna Holmgaard List (Stockholm, Sweden/Birmingham, UK),  Marina Kuimova (Imperial College London) and Martina Havenith (Bochum, Germany) talked about their research and shared insights into their career paths, including challenges they have faced and overcome, and they gave valuable tips for the aspiring early career researchers in the audience.

The symposium was timed to be in the week before International Women’s Day 2025 (Saturday 8 March) and was a joint UCL Chemistry and EPSRC UPDICE Programme Grant event, with additional support from the RSC Spectroscopy and Dynamics Group and the IOP Molecular Physics Group.
