RSE Fellowship for Professor Carter

Professor Sara Carter, Hunter Centre for Entrepreneurship, has been elected Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. The announcement of the Royal Society of Edinburgh's new intake of Fellows for 2012 came on March 7. Professor Carter was one of the 46 new UK and International Fellows joining the 1500-strong Fellowship.

Fellows are elected following a rigorous examination of their achievement in the relevant field.

Sir John Arbuthnott, the President of the RSE and eminent microbiologist commented, "In my first year as President I am pleased to welcome such a talented group of people to the RSE. Each new Fellow has achieved excellence in her or his field of work, whether in academia, public service or business. When I meet the new group of new Fellows at their induction in May I will encourage all of them to actively engage with the work of the RSE for the benefit of society here in Scotland and internationally."

"It is also encouraging that the proportion of female Fellows elected is the highest in the history of the Society in a single year, which I believe is an indication that more women are reaching the highest levels of their discipline, which is also now being reflected in election to the RSE."
