Women in Science Episode 3: From the classroom to global defence leader

Hear an inspiring story of career transformation, leadership, and purpose-driven science. In this special series of New Scientist CoLab interviews, we spotlight exceptional women driving progress in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Lorna is a Senior Science Manager at AWE, a technology and security organisation supporting the UK's nuclear deterrent. She’s the Acting Group Leader of Defence Radiation Protection Services at AWE, leading a team of 71 specialists. Lorna’s story is a reminder that STEM careers can begin in the most unexpected places as she shares her unconventional journey into science which began not in a laboratory, but in a classroom as a teacher.   We explore: ●      Lorna’s bold career pivot from education to national defence science ●      How she now delivers radiation protection for MOD operations ●      The value of diverse backgrounds in STEM and her path ●      And her advice for others considering non-traditional paths into science and engineering This series is proudly sponsored by AWE [https://www.awe.co.uk/].
