Ahead of International Women’s Day (Sunday 8 March), we invite you to join us at Edinburgh Napier University for a celebration of academic excellence and the pursuit of equality.

This special event brings together five recently appointed professors; one from each of our schools, who will reflect on their academic journeys and share insights from their research expertise.

In marking a day dedicated to recognising women’s achievements and advancing gender equality, the lectures highlight the diverse ways women shape knowledge, challenge barriers and lead progress across disciplines.

With a welcome from Edinburgh Napier University's Principal and Vice Chancellor Professor Sue Rigby, this will be a stimulating, fascinating and inspiring afternoon.

Keynote speakers:

• Professor Nicola Ring, Professor of Nursing, School of Health & Social Care
• Professor Clare Taylor, Professor of Microbiology & Inclusive Practice, School of Applied Sciences
