During the period October 2018 to June 2023 she was the executive chair at the EPSRC.[2]

Early life and education

Gladden was born on 30 July 1961.[3] Her father is John Montague Gladden and her mother, Sheila Faith Deverell.[3] Gladden was educated at the Heathfield School in Harrow.[3] She obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Physics at the University of Bristol in 1982, and afterwards moved to Trinity College, Cambridge, where she gained a PhD[4] in physical chemistry in 1987.[5] She also holds a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in Physics from the University of Oxford.[6]

Career and research

Gladden began her career as a lecturer at the University of Cambridge from 1987 to 1991.[3] She was appointed a reader from 1995 to 1999, when she was promoted to professor.[3] She was head of the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, University of Cambridge until 1 October 2010.
