Sharing a love of science

A Kent woman committed to inspiring young people to engage with science has been selected to represent Pfizer in a global initiative to promote the human issues and faces behind scientific research.

Sonia Patel, from Canterbury, joined the international healthcare company at its European research and development headquarters at Sandwich five years ago and has worked with the team involved in the company’s groundbreaking human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) research.

Miss Patel is featured among scientists talking about their work in the laboratories and beyond in Pfizer’s science awareness programme, Think Science Now, that promotes exceptional researchers. The programme links with www.bigthink.com, an interactive social networking site providing information and discussions on politics, law, business and science as a means to support greater public dialogue on thought-provoking issues.

“This has been a marvelous chance for me to talk about my work and let everyone, but particularly young people, know about all the different and incredibly exciting opportunities available in a science career,” said Miss Patel.
