WOMEN IN SCIENCE Jocelyn Robles

B.S. in Biotechnology is currently a Study Start Up and Study Closure Especialist at CidVID.

As a girl, I was always surprised that I heard more men’s names than I did women’s. As a woman in science, it bothers me. For while it is true that less than 30% of the world’s researchers are women, there are some amazing women scientists out there, whose names you might never have heard before. There are countless inspiring women who have made historic contributions to the field of science and who have helped us make sense of the world we live in. Women may still face various obstacles in pursuing science and technology, but one thing we can be certain of is that we’re much better off than just a century ago. This is all thanks to the women who have paved the way for the rest of us.
