Feedback
Our event featuring Dr Nikki Stamp was a great success, and Nikki's lecture was positively received by our staff, students and community members. The lecture was wonderfully inspiring with content that had been well adapted for our audience and the event objectives. Our current female medicine students were able to draw an enormous amount from her presentation. All in all a very successful event. Newcastle University
