International Day of Women and Girls in Science!
February 11
Led by UNESCO and ONU Femmes France, this initiative aims to promote and support the role of women and girls in science.
At LKB, the inclusion of women in science has been a reality since its inception. The laboratory has always counted women among its members, fostering diversity of perspectives in research. We are aware that further efforts are needed at LKB to ensure better gender equality.
🔎 Good to know: Regardless of a country’s level of development, gender equality remains a major global challenge in the fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
