Last Tuesday was the Women in Science Day, a day to put the focus on female researchers, whose contributions in Science have been silenced across the History. Even today, male scientists occupy higher positions, receive more funding and have more visibility.
One of the consequences is the lack of referees for girls, who might be thinking of having a STEM career, but could have the wrong thought that this is not for them. 4-year-old children at Ramon Fuster School, in Bellaterra, now know research is also a girls thing, as Elisenda visit them on the 11F, and explained that she works in a laboratory studying the brain.
