This week we interview Yasmin, a final year medical student who has taken a year out to study a computer science master’s at UCL. Tune in to find out what made her pivot towards learning how to code; the role women play in a tech world dominated by men. Hear the struggles she has faced on her pursuit to making an impact and being a champion for underrepresented women across the nation.
She is currently working on a healthcare project with GOSH and a MedEd startup. Working with the UCL Medical School and ex-president of the RCP she is running the first ‘Emerging Women Leaders’ course to encourage female clinicians to pursue leadership roles. Not only this, she has recently launched a muslim women in tech network (Tech Muslimahs) to bring together this community.
