Dear All, Today's external seminar will be delivered by Prof. Michelle Ryan from Exeter. Her talk will follow on nicely from last wednesday's Athena Swan talk, as she will be presenting her research on the "Glass Cliff", a precarious and obscured obstacle faced by women in leadership. As usual there will be drinks in the foyer afterwards. 4:15 in B020. Please come.
