BHF Alumni Voices Podcast: An evening with Professor Joanna Wardlaw

Monday, 3 February, 2025
Last year, the British Heart Foundation (BHF) hosted a remarkable evening at the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh as part of its Alumni Voices series, featuring a conversation between two of the UK’s leading medical researchers: Professor Joanna Wardlaw CBE and Professor James Leiper.
The evening provided a rare opportunity to delve into Professor Wardlaw’s personal history and motivations. She spoke candidly about her journey into the field of neuroimaging, the challenges she faced as a young woman and mother early in her career, and the driving forces behind her commitment to advancing research into cerebral small vessel disease.
