When looking at the global challenges of our time, no single discipline (or group of people) will be able to devise a solution alone.
Bio
Catarina Vicente is the Head of Scientific Strategy and Projects of the Dunn School of Pathology at the University of Oxford. A scientist by training, her professional career has followed the belief that science cannot be truly successful or impactful without effective communication, both between scientists and with wider society. After a PhD in cell biology, she pursued roles in intra-scientific communication (in the publishing industry), later focusing on public engagement and science communication in an academic context.
In her current role, she has a unique opportunity to influence academic research directly, capitalising on her communication skills. Alongside this, Catarina is an Official Fellow in Public Engagement with Research at Reuben College, where she develops public engagement projects from a unique scholarly and interdisciplinary perspective.
