Empowering Women in STEM: Principal Scientist Rachel McCarthy Featured in Student STEAM Journal

As part of Tetrad Discovery’s dedicated commitment to supporting female representation and leadership across the commercial life sciences, Principal Scientist Rachel McCarthy was honoured to contribute to STEAM, an investigative student journal produced by Dover Grammar School for Girls.

The grassroots initiative connected ambitious regional students with established female scientists to map out career trajectories, navigate the realities of commercial R&D, and highlight the critical importance of gender parity in modern laboratories.

During the discussion, Rachel unpacked her own career path into pharmacology and bio-analysis, providing actionable advice for young women evaluating advanced STEM degrees and commercial R&D pipelines.
