Meet Prof. Hilary Lappin-Scott (FEMS President) and Dr. Sara Burton
12-11-19
At FEMS2019 (7-11 July 2019) in Glasgow, Scotland, we interviewed a range of scientists to find our more about their research and teaching, their inspiration, and microbiology! In the first video of this series, we interviewed Prof. Hilary Lappin-Scott and Dr. Sara Burton after they had given their networking session for our Congress Attendance Grantees.
While during FEMS2019 Hilary was the Vice-President of FEMS, we are very pleased to announce that during the recent FEMS Council Meeting in Milan (6-7th September, 2019) she officially took on the role of President of FEMS. Hilary is the third female President of FEMS and the first from the UK and Ireland.
Hilary’s Microbiology hero: Rita Colwell
Sara’s Microbiology hero: My whole microbiome
