Swansea University will be hosting its fifth Soapbox Science event on Saturday 23 June, bringing 12 inspirational female scientists to the streets of Swansea to share their research, engage the public, and inspire the next generation of scientists.
The free event, which will be held in Oxford Street between 12pm - 3pm on Saturday 23 June, aims to raise the profile and challenge the public’s view of women in science, technology, engineering, maths, and medicine (STEMM).

The Swansea event is one of 17 Soapbox Science events going on in the UK, with international events taking place in Canada, Australia, Italy, and Germany.
