Welcome to Research Outreach! This issue, we feature researchers working across a variety of disciplines, ranging from climate change mitigation to synthetic biology.

In these challenging and uncertain times it’s more important than ever to stay up to date with the latest research. We speak to Olly Cooper, CEO and co-founder of the Researcher app, a quick and easy online solution for scientists to reliably keep up to speed with the latest publications in their field.

A revolutionary mentorship programme for the STEM community, The Social Scientist is an online platform that enlists mentors from around the globe to provide guidance and career advice to students and professionals in STEM fields. We catch up with its founder, Dr Danielle Tomasello who explains how her own experiences as a STEM graduate led her to create a platform that is changing the face of mentorship across STEM fields.

We hope you enjoy this issue of Research Outreach as much as we’ve enjoyed putting it together.
