What matters most is the beautiful mind of the scientist – International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2025
Since 2015, February 11th has been celebrated as the UN Day for Women and Girls in Science and Technology, a day dedicated to highlighting the achievements of women in STEM and inspiring future generations to follow their lead. In previous years, we’ve heard from incredible women like our COO Vilhelmiina Juusti and Senior Application Scientist Elizabeth Cudjoe. This year, we are excited to spotlight Elinda Hermanson, our newest / youngest Application Scientist, who shares her journey in biotechnology and her thoughts on empowering women in science.
If you set your mind to it, you can make it happen – Women and Girls in Science and Technology 2023
Every year the 11th of February is dedicated to the UN Day for Women and Girls in Science and Technology that recognizes the role of women in science, and encourages girls to pursue studies and careers in traditionally male-dominated fields. To celebrate the date, we had the opportunity to ask our friends and colleagues Elizabeth and Jasmine who work at the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research in Ghana about her studies and work in medical research.
