The freedom to undertake research that is of benefit to an industry I love has brought me great personal satisfaction and joy.
Dr Sara Ridley, Industrial Fellow 2009
Quite simply the gateway to my future as a scientist. It made me independent and free to develop whatever research I chose. I do not think that my career would have been the same without it.
