Radcliffe Science Library Diversity Portrait Project - Help the RSL celebrate equality, diversity and inclusion in Science and Medicine

The Radcliffe Science Library (RSL) has launched two events to celebrate and highlight past and present contribution to science and medicine at Oxford from a diverse community.

  • The equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) writing competition open to all undergraduates in science and medicine.
  • A call to nominate staff and students who have made outstanding contributions to promote equality, diversity, and inclusion.

The results of the competition and nomination will be part of an exhibition display when the RSL re-opens for Michaelmas Term 2023.

Details of the events are on the Science blog.
