Dr Sharon Ann Holgate
I was delighted to be asked to give some public speaking training as part of the Institute of Physics (IOP) Student Community Training Day at the IOP headquarters in London.
My thanks go to Tala Clark and Paul Williams – pictured with me in the right-hand photo on the left and right respectively – and to all the enthusiastic attendees for making me feel so welcome.

I am delighted to be sharing my story in the latest edition of Pioneer magazine by the Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) Children’s Charity. Without GOSH’s ground-breaking neurosurgery I wouldn’t be alive today, and amazingly the hospital also gave me my first taste of radio broadcasting and science writing as a 12-year-old in-patient having surgery to keep me walking.
