Today is a joyous day. Meet the extraordinary May, we call her Dr May today. May came to #England aged 13 years as a refugee from #Afghanistan, where girls were not allowed to be educated. She “spoke no English” yet today her external #PhD examiner told me, “Brilliant thesis”.
What do you need to be a scientist, a leader and an entrepreneur- all rolled into one person? “Exposure”
Do listen to @ProfAsifAhmed interview released tonight at 6pm (GMT) on @ScrubbedIn_ on his 40 year journey on curiosity, exposure and purpose with a passion.

@ProfAsifAhmed @PHE_uk People need to wake up and realise the importance of facemasks. It's proven to prevent 90% of droplets entering our body into mucosal surfaces [Guo, Y. (2008) Transmission of communicable respiratory infections and facemasks]. And COVID-19 is mainly transmitted via droplets!
Today my son as a frontline doctor was fitted and made ready to battle with #covid19UK. I now know how a soldier’s family must feel to see their loved ones go to war for us. We are at war with this #virus. Our #NHS is #FightCOVID19 for us. 🙏 🙏
A mentor sees the strengths of the mentee. A good mentor sees the strengths and the weaknesses. A great mentor sees weakneses that could become the strengths. A perfect mentor sees a mentor. @ProfAsifAhmed the guiding light since ‘14 #NationalMentoringDay@AstonMedicine
UK universities' #BAME staff less likely to hold top jobs. Speak up and speak out against institutional discrimination. I’m proud of the England’s football team last night. The boardrooms must look like the classrooms in #universities in #Birmingham.
