Conor is well-known around UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health for how friendly, approachable and helpful he is. It is rare to find someone so obviously and genuinely invested in helping others progress. No matter what you ask, he is always happy to help. Conor is a constant source of advice, re-reading drafts for grant applications with impressive patience, always ready with his catchphrase “but what’s the question?” to help you refine your ideas. He recently initiated and co-led the INSPIRE Work Experience Programme, aimed at providing teenagers from underprivileged backgrounds with lab experience. The feedback from this event was overwhelmingly positive and Conor and others aim to expand this into an annual programme with an even greater reach. Conor is constantly going above and beyond, a true role model for any scientist wishing to collaborate with others to make a real difference in the world.
