Imperial/57: Winter 202425

In our winter issue of Imperial Magazine, we hear from university leaders on our new strategy and how we’re working to shape the future with plans to discover, create, explain and transform. We also meet the team at the Centre for Paediatric Blast Injury Studies, the co-founders behind a new cancer screening tool, and Imperial specialists on cities of the future.

Elsewhere in this issue, we take a ride in Imperial’s vintage motor car, hit the right notes with the Imperial Sinfonietta, and step inside the magical world of Makerspace to celebrate Outreach at 50. Read on to find out what’s next in Imperial’s fields of expertise and meet members of our community.
