Welcome to She Talks Science at Murray Edwards College!
We are excited to share our resources, events and blog posts with you.
Resources
Below you will find downloadable academic resources, which will enable you to explore particular topics within biology, chemistry and physics in depth. They have been developed by senior graduate students at the University of Cambridge and relate to their respective fields of research. The resources are designed to provide students considering a degree in science, the opportunity to explore their subject beyond the curriculum. You can work through these resources independently.
Webinars
We are hosting a series of webinars led by senior graduate students in science at Murray Edwards. The webinars are for students in Year 12 who identify as female and who are interested in studying a STEM subject at university. There are 40 places available for each webinar, which will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. If you would like to participate in any of the webinars, please complete this form.
If you have any queries about the webinar series, please email Hazel Collinson.
