International Day of Women and Girls in Science
Today, 11 February, is the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, an initiative supported by UNESCO encouraging women and girls to pursue a career in science and promoting diversity in research.
This day reminds us how important it is to expose young generations to women role models in science. To celebrate gender equality in science, we present seven outstanding women working at PSI.
PSI aims to increase the share of women in core areas with a focus on leading and postdoctoral positions. Last year, PSI - Empa - Eawag founded the Competence Centre for Diversity & Inclusion. This initiative allows the three research institutes to maximize synergies and strengthen equity, diversity and inclusion within the ETH Domain.
