The College warmly congratulates Prof Karen Leeder FRSA MAE who has been shortlisted for the Griffin Poetry Prize 2025.
The judges' citation said her translation of Durs Grünbein’s 'Psyche Running' is 'a brilliant overview and selection of a poet who satisfies our hunger to be serious, as again and again he finds himself “between words and things.” Karen Leeder’s adept translations establish a new version of Grünbein in English: universal, lyrical, philosophical.'

📚✨ It's a record-breaking year for the Anthea Bell Prize! Over 22,000 pupils across the UK took part in QTE's national translation competition — inspiring creativity, curiosity, and a love of languages.
Founder of the Queen's Translation Exchange Dr Charlotte Ryland said: 'Seeing engagement with the Anthea Bell Prize increase in this way is a genuine and rare moment of optimism for languages...it’s clear that we are responding to a need amongst teachers and young language learners: to feel connected to other cultures, to engage with others’ voices, and to respond creatively to that experience.'

From scholarship to start-up: we recently had the opportunity to catch up with graduate and former Clarendon Scholar Tom Tokovyi to hear what he’s been up to since leaving Queen’s. Tom, biotech entrepreneur, shows how research and business can go hand in hand as he combines science and innovation to shape the future.
