Announcing the 2021 Turner-Warwick lecturers

The Turner-Warwick lecturer scheme provides a sense of pride, builds confidence and gives encouragement to trainees across the UK.

We couldn’t be more thrilled to shine a spotlight on each of these trainees who’ve worked incredibly hard and through the difficult circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our many congratulations go to each and every one!
