Stella Chan featured in 'Academic Women Now: Experiences of Mid-Career Academic Women in Scotland'

Produced May 2016

The RSE Young Academy of Scotland has launched a booklet entitled 'Academic Women Now: Experiences of Mid-Career Academic Women in Scotland' as an initiative to provoke cultural changes in supporting women in developing their academic career. This booklet includes brief interviews with women academics across disciplines in Scottish Universities, sharing the joy and challenges they have faced in their career.

Although the title of the booklet is 'mid-career', this booklet features stories from women who have climbed up to professorship to those such as myself who are still at an early stage of career. It is an honour for me to be involved in the initiative.
