International Day of Women and Girls in Science

Abstract

Science and innovation are enriched by the diverse ideas, perspectives, and experiences women bring to the table. Diverse research teams bring diverse approaches to challenges. Having different people coming at research questions from different angles improves collaboration, discussion and produces better decisions, better solutions, and better results. To mark the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we have asked a few of our female researchers and male champions to reflect on the crucial role women play in powering science and innovation.
