Hi! I'm Emma and I'm a first year undergraduate student at the University of Leeds studying French and Italian.
This summer I will undertake research for the project 'Listening to Feminist Art Histories: Researching and Sharing Voices from the FAMH Oral History Archive'. The Feminist Art Making Histories digital archive consists of interviews with artists, curators, and writers in the UK and Ireland from the 1970s onwards, exploring the relation between feminism and art. My findings will form part of Dr Elspeth Mitchell and the FAMH team's wider work of foregrounding the experiences of women artists in an engaging and accessible way to the public. My interest in intersectional feminism and of the importance of representation drew me towards this project, and I'm looking forward to engaging with feminst art histories with the FAMH.
As a Modern Languages student and a native Welsh speaker, I'm passionate about languages and cross-cultural communication. I'm particularly interested in the way languages shape identities and build communities. Outside of my studies I enjoy reading, running, baking and travelling.
I'm excited to begin my journey of research and leadership as a Laidlaw Scholar as well as connecting with other Scholars across the Global Network!
Hi everyone! I’m Donna, and I have just completed my second year studying Molecular Bioengineering at Imperial College London.
I’m interested in how research can move from scientific ideas into real-world healthcare impact. I enjoy learning about the biology behind disease and technology, but I’m also curious about what happens after a discovery is made: how it can be translated responsibly into something useful, accessible, and meaningful.
This summer, my Laidlaw research project will focus on wearable muscle-signal interfaces for assistive control after spinal cord injury. More broadly, I’m excited by healthcare technologies that are not only technically impressive, but also practical enough to make a difference in people’s daily lives.
Through Laidlaw, I hope to better understand the role leadership plays in helping research move beyond the lab, from shaping ideas thoughtfully to connecting them with people and communities who may benefit from them.
I’m looking forward to learning from people across the Laidlaw community, especially those working in bioengineering, healthcare innovation, neural engineering, or protein de novo design. Please feel free to reach out. I’d be very happy to connect.
I'm a second year MEng Chemical Engineering student at Imperial College London.
My Laidlaw project compares electrification and CCUS pathways for industrial decarbonisation, supervised by Dr. Bakkaloglu at Imperial. Last year I coordinated a project across four universities with Rolls-Royce SMR on integrating high temperature gas reactors with desalination and ammonia production.
Before Imperial I took a gap year and backpacked through 50+ countries solo, mostly on overland routes. That is where my emerging markets focus came from.
I am a medical student at Imperial College interested in surgery and research. I am currently exploring various surgical specialties including cardiothoracic surgery, and my upcoming research project will be on mitral valve repairs. I have attached previously to research groups under orthopaedic surgery and cardiothoracic surgery, and I am also involved in some research projects in London and my home city Hong Kong.
In my spare time I enjoy travelling, skiing, visiting art museums and painting, in particular watercolour.
Hi! I'm a 3rd year medical student at Imperial College London. I'm interested in how cross-sector parternships can improve health and well-being (SDG3) for all.
Hello! I’m Thomas Delaloye, a Mechanical Engineering student at EPFL. I’m passionate about robotics, mechanical design, and hands-on projects that combine theory with real-world impact. Always eager to learn, share ideas, and meet people who challenge and inspire me!
Material Science and Engineering Student at Imperial College London, with experience leading various engineering teams and research projects.
