In the top left corner is the University of Birmingham logo, below which is the text ‘This is your opportunity to become one of our 125th Anniversary Fellows and Chairs.’ In the bottom left corner is the text ‘We advance We Activate’ above the URL ‘birmingham.ac.uk’. In the centre of the infographic are three images separated by four white lines that meet in the centre. The first image is of an elderly white woman looking into a microscope whilst placing something underneath it.
