Question: What do you think can change the world that will involve science??????

Amy Heather Fitzpatrick answered on 11 Nov 2019:

I think if science teams included a diverse group of people from all over the world, it would have a greater impact than scientific discoveries by themselves. I would love to see more women as leaders of research teams, speaking at public events and leading universities. People from the developing world, people of colour, people from the travelling community in Ireland, all need to be present and represented in the science community. This diversity is important, because just like in the classroom, at work we all have difference ways of thinking and seeing the world. Sometimes we need those different world views to make scientific discoveries or to focus on certain research areas!
