A collection of inspirational women working in clinical research in Greater Manchester will share their stories at this International Women’s Day event.

Following the success of its inaugural event last year, Clinical Research Network (CRN) Greater Manchester is delighted to host another occasion to mark International Women’s Day.

This special event will toast the amazing women involved in health and social care research across Greater Manchester.

As we all know, we have a wealth of women contributing to research in a huge variety of jobs, making a significant difference at all levels.

So we are inviting a range of these inspirational women to speak for us and provide an insight into the person behind the job.

They’ll share stories sure to inspire all of us – not just in our work, but in general life as well.

The speakers, to be revealed in February, will share their career stories, describe the obstacles they have overcome, and provide some advice for anyone who’s faced similar challenges.

The event will be compered by Dr Linda Magee OBE, winner of the 2019 Greater Manchester Clinical Research Award for Lifetime Achievement.

The event is free to attend. Food and drinks will be provided. The CRN look forward to welcoming you to this celebratory occasion, which will have a relaxed atmosphere and will also be a great networking opportunity.
