Holly O'Dea: A Scouse Scientist's Take on Dispelling Stereotypes
Holly O'Dea, a.k.a The Scouse Scientist has had to overcome assumptions about who she is since she started her studies at University of Oxford over ten years ago. Since then she's used her northern charm to challenge the traditional perception of scientists and promote diversity in the field. She does this in part by sharing a candid insight into her life as a Clinical Scientist in the NHS.
In this episode, Holly talks about her passion for inspiring others to follow in her career footsteps, and reflects on the challenges she's faced in her personal life.
