EDINBURGH, UK – 2011: Professor Lesley Yellowlees, the newly appointed Head of the College of Science & Engineering at the University of Edinburgh.
Lesley considers herself “home grown”, having graduated from Edinburgh with a BSc in Chemical Physics in 1975. After working two and a half years in Australia researching solar energy, she returned to the city to study for her PhD, followed by a postdoctorate in Glasgow. Two decades on, in 2005, a rush of accolades – Personal Chair, Head of Chemistry and an MBE for services to science – confirmed just how far she’d risen.
As Head of School she cultivated a reputation for commitment to research, teaching excellence and equality – all of which she promises to champion in her new role.
