👩🎓🏛️ Warmest congratulations to UCD Professor Kate Robson Brown on her appointment by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer to the British Natural History Museum Board of Trustees, advising on digital tech and AI.
Speaking of her appointment, Professor Kate Robson Brown said it was “a privilege to be joining the Natural History Museum’s Board of Trustees at a time when the organisation is seeking to realise the opportunities presented by digital technologies to deliver its core missions."
"We are living through a period of digital transformation in which data generation and management, data science and AI are impacting on many aspects of our lives and opening up opportunities for new ways of working and engaging with the communities we serve.”
Exhibiting a vast range of specimens, comprising some 80 million items across its main collections, the Natural History Museum is recognised as the pre-eminent centre of natural history and research in related fields worldwide.
Given the institution's age, many of its collections have great historical and scientific value, including specimens collected by Charles Darwin.
In addition to Professor Robson Brown, Tanuja Randery, VP and Managing Director of Amazon Web Services (AWS) UKI, Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA), has also been appointed to the Museum’s Board of Trustees.
Congratulations to Professor Kate Robson Brown, UCD Vice-President for Research, Innovation and Impact, on her appointment to the Board of Trustees of the @NHM_London!
