To all women in engineering: your work matters, your presence inspires, and your voice changes things💜. Happy #INWED2025 from all of us at @ImperialBioeng!. #InternationalWomenInEngineeringDay #WomenInSTEM #INWED25

📸Dr Parry Hashemi, Associate Professor in Brain Diagnostics and Therapeutics. 💬“Don't give up; take challenges as opportunities to grow!”. Challenges don’t stop progress; they fuel it. Thanks to Dr Hashemi for this uplifting call to keep pushing forward. #INWED2025

📸Naima Adan, PhD student in the @HashemiLab. 💬“We belong, always have!”. A reminder that women, especially those historically pushed to the margins, have always had a place in engineering. #INWED2025

📸Miray Kirollos, PhD student in the @akedgley lab. 💬“To future women in Engineering: we're not just participating - we're redefining the future!”. Women like Miray are helping to shape engineering into a more innovative and inclusive field. #INWED2025

📸Mercedes Aramayo Gomes Rezende, PhD student in the @akedgley lab. 💬“Never apologise for being a powerful woman”. #INWED2025

📸Mengjie Shi, Research Associate in the ULIS Lab. 💬“If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, you must be the one to write it.”. Forging new paths in Engineering starts with imagining what’s missing and daring to create it. #INWED2025

📸Meg Spiteri, PhD student in the Masouros lab (@icsmas). 💬“The first step in equal research in healthcare is women in the lab answering their own questions. ”. When women shape research, they reshape outcomes not only for themselves but also for everyone else. #INWED2025

📸Maryam Sajjad, PhD student in the @vBSLab. 💬“Women in STEM are powerful, so don't underestimate that. Pakistani women in STEM are equally powerful, despite what people might say.”. Proud. Defiant. Unapologetically seen. #INWED2025

📸Margherita Montavoci, PhD student in the @BioengIshihara lab. 💬 "Don't let anyone tell you that you don't have time. The world needs your ideas!". Margherita's message is the reminder female engineers need: you matter, and your ideas are worth making time for. #INWED2025

📸Leah Redmond, PhD student in the @HigginsBioeng lab. 💬 “Engineering isn't just circuits and mechanics - it's cells, healing and the future of medicine! ”. Leah’s message reminds us that compassion and care are at the heart of engineering innovation. #INWED2025

📸Isna Safira, PhD student in the @akedgley lab. 💬 “Yo go girls!”. Simple, powerful, and full of positivity! Isna brings the kind of energy we all need to feel seen and cheered on.🎉. #INWED2025

📸Hind Alyahya, PhD student in the @akedgley lab. 💬 “You don’t need to be perfect - you need to be persistent! ”. Perfection is overrated. Hind champions persistence, resilience, and taking up space. #INWED2025

📸Gladys Diaz Armas, PhD student in the @vBSLab. 💬 “Where would the world be without women in science? Where would doctors be without any medical devices? Science needs engineering and engineering needs you!”. #INWED2025

📸Dr Ester Reina-Torres, Research Associate in the Ocular Biomechanics lab. 💬“Engineering shapes the world. Women's voices are essential to shaping it fully!”. A perfect reminder from Ester: without women, engineering is missing vital perspectives. #INWED2025

📸 Esma Lüleci, PhD student in the @akedgley lab. 💬 “A Turkish woman in science. Building bridges between health and engineering”. Esma brings her whole self to her work — her culture, her expertise, and her vision for better health through engineering!. #INWED2025
