About the Author

Alice Roberts

Roberts originally trained as a doctor, but left surgery behind to become a university academic - teaching clinical anatomy to students and doctors, and researching human origins and disease in ancient bones.

From very early in my academic career, she became involved in university outreach. Universities are knowledge generators, and she believes we should share that knowledge widely - but listening and learning from others’ experience and expertise is also vitally important. In this way, we can make sure that knowledge benefits everyone - whether that’s sharing the latest medical advances or enriching our culture in other ways. Roberts has been Professor of Public Engagement with Science at the University of Birmingham since 2012.
