I was pleased to speak at the @APPGforLondon event on what London needs from the Chancellor’s upcoming Budget.
It was great to discuss London’s role as an economic powerhouse and the support needed to ensure London and the UK remain at the forefront of global innovation.

Professor Alice Gast, former Imperial President and Emeritus Professor of Chemical Engineering, died on 27 October 2025.
Professor Gast was the first woman to lead Imperial. Under her transformational presidency, Imperial became a champion of collaboration, innovation and internationalism.
Remembering Alice Gast: imperial.ac.uk/news/270893/r…
Alice was driven always by clarity and purpose during a time of unprecedented challenge and change. Against the backdrop of a global pandemic, she took Imperial from strength to strength – guided by her belief that universities should be forces for good in the world.

Fantastic to join PM @Keir_Starmer on this trade mission, announcing 10 Imperial-India research collaboration projects with leading institutions.
Among them, quantum, bioengineering, clean energy and climate resilience… our mission is simply ‘to be useful’ – and we are.

This is yet another brilliant recognition of Imperial’s excellence in research and education. Rankings don’t tell the whole story, and we measure our true value in our global impact.
But I'm pleased to see our community celebrated. Congratulations to our Imperial family.

We've climbed to 8th in the @timeshighered World University Rankings, joining Oxford and Cambridge in the global top 10.

We know advances in biotech offer tremendous opportunities for health, security, and prosperity, but they also bring complex risks.
Working together across borders and sectors, the UK and US can ensure that our world-leading science strengthens resilience and safeguards society.
