Our online Academy CAFÉ (Connecting Awardees, Fostering Engagement) series provides engagement for research awardees and alumni. The series ensures you can benefit from the expertise and experience within the Academy’s network, as well as allowing you to share ideas, challenges and best practice.
This event is a panel discussion chaired by Professor Alicia El Haj FREng, followed by a Q&A session on ‘How to influence policy and politics’. This is a great opportunity to find out more about the parliamentary system and how to engage with it.
The Baroness Brown of Cambridge DBE FREng FRS FMedSci
Julia’s engineering experience began at a young age, through learning to fix her home electrical appliances. She moved from an academic career at Cambridge to a job in industry with Rolls- Royce, developing critical aeroengine materials.
Over her career, Julia developed a growing interest in climate change. She led the King Review on low-emissions transport for the government, which led to more official advisory positions and becoming a leading voice in the drive to combat climate change.
