BEaMS is a brand new society, here to represent Black, Ethnic and Minority Scientists. We're here to create a network of BME students across the different schools and provide a safe space for scientists of colour. We also aim to give support, improve the BME student experience, and advocate for equality and diversity in the sciences. Join us on Facebook, or follow us on Twitter (@Beams_uob) or Instagram (beams_uob) to find out more.
