The Serene Scientist
About Me - Dr Shara B.A. Cohen

I have been interested in science for longer than I care to remember, being a member of the British Association of Young Scientists from the age of 15. In the 80's I studied Applied Biology (BSc-1985) and went on to focus on Immunology (PhD-1989). I then took my research to New York for a few years, returning to the UK in 90's where I became a senior scientist, university lecturer and head of a research group. I left mainstream science on the birth of my first daughter in 2000 and established and currently manage Euroscicon . I also founded and oversee Mums in Science.

I have over 100 scientific papers, books and book chapters and have been active in bringing science to the non-scientist, by written communications and television. I am also a scientific consultant and sit on several advisory boards.

I live in London with my husband, two daughters and two cats

About My Work

I run a company called Euroscicon which specializes in producing unique Life Science Events. Our meetings offer scientists a valuable opportunity to move forward with current research, methodological and technical developments, with a good mix of high quality talks from both academic speakers and companies.

I also established the popular science portal - Mums in Science - for busy mums who work or have worked in any area of science (and am currently the Chief Executive Officer).
