Dr Curtis Asante is Associate Director of Members' Programmes at the Microbiology Society. He spent some time in the US as a Postdoc, before embarking in his post-research journey; this has taking him from working as an editor in a prestigious scientific journal to being a project manager for a research network (UKRMP), a research funder (Research Cancer UK) and a learned society (Microbiology Society).
When he started his career with a PhD in neuropharmacology, Curtis may not have predicted that he would live such a diverse professional life.
As a black scientist, Curtis has become involved in work to foster diversity in organisations. The impact of doing Equality and Diversity work has reshaped his professional identity as a change maker. His leadership has been built in part through taking the opportunity of becoming the co-chair of the Race Equality and Equity network at Cancer Research UK.
