We are pleased to announce that Ms Chau Tran, a Laidlaw Scholar at Hong Kong University, has her project "Aptamer-mediated DNA nanocage encapsulated gold nanoparticles for high-sensitivity lateral flow point-of-care medical devices." featured in Laidlaw Scholar Spotlight on 23 Jul 2020.

The Laidlaw Foundation currently supports the Laidlaw Schools Trust, a growing multi academy trust in the North East of England, serving children and families in the west of Newcastle and in Pennywell, Sunderland; funds the Laidlaw Scholars, an international programme supporting undergraduates in 14 universities around the world, designed to develop a new generation of diverse, passionate and committed leaders; and enables the Columbia Business School Scholars and the London Business School Women’s Movement to help more women gain their MBAs. To date the Foundation has assisted more than 230 women to enrol in business school. The Foundation has funded the Laidlaw Music Centre at the University of St. Andrews, built the Laidlaw Library at Leeds University and is exploring new campus spaces which bring together academics and entrepreneurs.

Congratulations to Ms Chau Tran!
