WISPER - Women in Science Promoting Energy Research

The IOM3 Energy Materials Group sponsored also by other learned societies is organising a 1-day meeting to celebrate Emerging Women Leaders in Energy, “Women in Science Promoting Energy Research (WISPER)”.

The meeting will be held at the IOP headquarters, 37 Caledonian Rd, London N1 9BU, on 21 May 2025. The workshop will be an excellent opportunity for all career stages to discuss research and their experiences (both positive and negative!).

The day will include a key note talk from Professor Dame Julia King, and 4 invited speakers (Dr. Jess Wade, Prof. Melanie Britton, Dr. Clara Barker and Prof. John Singleton), who as well as introducing their area of research, will answer the question of “are things improving for women in energy research?” and highlight any initiatives.

There will be opportunities for early career individuals to present their work (6 talk slots and 50 poster slots are available). The day will close with a roundtable discussion at the meeting, featuring high profile people to discuss their career experiences.

We will have lunch and an evening catered reception. Thank you to sponsorship, this event will be free.
