RSC Awards Grant to Tackle Racism Within Chemistry

The School of Chemistry (SoC) was recently awarded £59,927 to address the key themes outlined in the Missing Elements Report.

The findings of the RSC Missing Elements Report, showed there remains racial and ethnic inequalities within the chemical sciences, particularly with career progression and representation. Within the UK we are failing to retain and nurture talented Black chemists especially after undergraduate studies.

Over the next three years the project will contribute positively to changing the science culture in chemistry.
