Embracing women and girls in science

Description

For decades, women are underrepresented in science, and in particular in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).

One of the theories why there is still such a gender gap in STEM is that women don’t prefer a career in the exact sciences because of a lack of role models.

So, let’s highlight some female researchers at Maastricht University who have chosen a career in science, technology, engineering and mathematic. And who knows…it might inspire young girls to choose an education that sets them up for a career in the exact sciences.
