Interviewed by creative artist and comedian Jana Kennedy, the nine women in the series talk about the human side to their work, their passion for research, the personal cost, the hilarious and the mundane. Jana's aim is to show all sides of women in research -- her subjects are nurses, physios, pharmacists, mums, wives, runners, readers and very very human beings.  
 
NHS R&D write: 

From the Professors to the trainees, these women are an inspiration and an encouragement to anyone thinking about doing health research. There are nine films in total and one will be launched every four weeks over the coming year. We hope that you will watch the films and be truly inspired. Share as widely as you can and help us to build the NHS research workforce of the future!
