Women in Science Episode 4: Inside the world of nuclear test monitoring
Meet a woman who works at the frontlines of global nuclear monitoring.
In this special series of New Scientist CoLab interviews, where we spotlight exceptional women driving progress in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
Jenny is the leader of AWE’s forensic seismology team and Lead UN Inspector for the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty Organisation, which carries out large-scale inspections across the globe.
She walks us through everything from what might prompt an inspection to what actually happens on the ground, highlighting just how complex these high-stakes missions are.
We explore:
● Jenny’s pioneering career at the intersection of science, security, and diplomacy
● What skills are needed to work in high-stakes, global environments
● Her advice for women looking to make a difference in STEM and international security
This series is proudly sponsored by AWE.
Your host is Claire Aisnworth.
