Dr Rhys Grant joins the Programme as our Science Communication Specialist

Dr Rhys Grant trained as a Biochemist at the University of Cambridge, completing his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Natural Sciences (Biochemistry), followed by a PhD in the Department of Genetics and a short postdoctoral position in Dr Catherine Lindon's Group in the Department of Pharmacology. Since a young age, Rhys has actively sought out all opportunities related to science communication; ranging from exhibiting at local and national science festivals and blog writing, to the design of educational resources and lecturing at school science clubs. Rhys has joined us from the Linnean Society of London, where he was working as the Education and Public Engagement Manager, to run our Programme's external communications, produce educational digital media, and lead our outreach work. His role is a joint position shared between our Programme and the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge.
