Each year, thousands of alumni and supporters generously donate to the University. Their donations have a huge impact all over campus: from countless research projects, to the over 800 students who are supported by donor-funded scholarships, to the buildings they study and learn in.
On Wednesday 10 April, the University will welcome our generous donors to campus. As part of the day, we will be running a showcase event where people can learn about the wide-ranging impact that donations have at the University, and meet those students, staff and researchers who benefit from this generosity.
Among those presenting will be representatives from FBMH including Stephanie Snow’s NHS at 70: Stories of Our Lives team and donor-funded PhD cancer researcher, Anya Golder in SMS, who will be looking at drug resistance in ovarian cancer. She’ll be talking all about her research, and getting attendees involved by looking at cancer cells undergoing abnormal division on the big screen.
The showcase will be open from 1pm in the Martin Harris Centre. All staff are welcome and encouraged to come along and get involved to learn a little more about the impact of giving at the University.
