🎉 We’re delighted to share that Hertford alumna Frances Hand has been selected as a BBC Radio 4 and AHRC New Generation Thinker for 2026.

One of only five academics chosen nationwide, Frances’s research focuses on making childbirth safer for women in the UK. Drawing on thousands of women’s testimonies, her work examines systemic harms in maternity care and argues for a more human rights focused response.

Currently completing a DPhil in Law at Oxford, Frances hopes to bring these important conversations to wider audiences through programmes across BBC Radio 4.

She says: ‘Sparking public conversations has always been incredibly important to me. My research is nothing without the women that have shaped it, and the national situation will not improve if we confine it to academic spaces.’

Congratulations, Frances! 🥳

Congratulations to second-year Biology undergraduate Diogo Figueiredo Trovoada, who has been selected for the University of Oxford’s 2026 iGEM team! 👏🔬

iGEM is the world’s largest synthetic biology and bioengineering competition, bringing together over 400 student teams from around the world. Diogo joins a multidisciplinary team of 14 undergraduates working to develop an innovative treatment to tackle Varroa mites – a major threat to honey bee populations and global food production.

We look forward to hearing more about their exciting work in the months ahead 🐝
