To celebrate the Day of Women and Girls in Science we give an overview of our “Minerva’s Daughters” Interview Series.
February 11, 2025
11 February is the International Day for Women and Girls in Science. With this day, the United Nations wants to set an example for more equal opportunities in science and encourage women to get involved. Our institute has been organising activities for women and girls for years, because we too would like to see more women in research. That's why we are taking part in Girls' Day and our interview series “Minerva's Daughters” shows how diverse the work of women at our institute is. Below you will find an overview of the interviews published in 2024 and so far in our ‘Minerva's Daughters’ series.
