The Chemistry Department will be celebrating Black History Month on Wednesday 16 October at The Works restaurant (White City Campus). The event will run between 17h30-19h00 and will feature free drinks, finger food, cake and music.
We are delighted to have Dr Faysal Farah (pictured) as our speaker, who will talk about his experience of driving outreach opportunities for students of Black heritage and setting up the Somali Academics network. Faysal has won a number of prizes for his work in this area and will join a panel discussion with our own Doris Pappoe (postgraduate administrator with 40 years’ experience at Imperial) and Hodan Warsame (PhD student and outreach organiser) after the talk.
If you wish to attend, please make sure you accept the invite sent to Chemistry staff and students by HoD Oscar Ces so that we can provide enough food and drinks.
This event is also open to those outside the Chemistry Department but please contact Ingrid Temmerman (i.temmerman@imperial.ac.uk) to confirm your attendance.
