Alumna Dr Kate Broderick (BSc 1999, PhD) wins San Diego Businesswoman of the Year Award

Dr Broderick was amongst those celebrated by the 2018 San Diego Business Journal Business Women of the Year awards. A world-changing expert in DNA vaccines, Broderick serves as Vice President - Research & Development for Inovio Pharmaceuticals, for whom she recently led a project which secured a $56 million contract with the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, a worldwide consortium dedicated to developing new vaccines for emerging infectious diseases.

One co-worker describes Broderick as “a force of nature, developing vaccines, researching and writing the grant applications, and then standing before committees such as the Gates Foundation to present why her lab is worthy of the grant.”

We are very proud of Kate for all she has achieved and look forward to applauding the many successes which are surely in her future!
