The Power List 2019
Joanne Horne
Recently crowned Biomedical Scientist of the Year for 2019, Joanne continues to trailblaze in GI histopathology, changing the face of modern medicine reporting and ensuring that low consultant numbers don’t increase cancer waiting times to diagnosis. Joanne is proactive in raising the profile of biomedical science using her strong social media presence and curated the highly popular NHS Twitter account in January 2018. “My advice would be to work hard, not take rejection and failure personally, and try to see the viewpoint of others,” says Joanne. “It’s important to be bold and brave to challenge traditional hierarchies and barriers!”
