We join universities and organisations around the world this month in celebrating International Women’s Day, and this edition is packed with stories about women at Keele, whether they be members of staff, students or alumni, and highlights just a small number of the amazing things that they do here or have achieved in the wider world. I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as we did compiling it. Keele on camera The Conversation Dr Anne Loweth
