"Meet Your Future You" – Women in Science

Episode 8: "Meet Your Future You" – Women in Science

Within the "Meet Your Future You" - series, we intend to also focus on women in science. For this reason, in our eighth episode we will continue our format by discussing the opportunities and challenges faced by female scientists. Two experienced researchers will share their insights on overcoming hurdles, securing PhD positions, obtaining Postdoc roles, and provide practical tips. 
This episode features the For Women in Science programme and two of its award winners (Dr. Line Næsborg, Dr. Rana Hussein Ali). For Women in Science (founded by UNESCO and the Fondation L’Oréal in 1998) is a global programme promoting and celebrating women who dare to push the boundaries of knowledge and shape the future with bold, original research. It empowers female scientists at all stages – for their life-time achievements and early‑career scientists. Additionally, For Women in Science has national chapters in some 60 countries, focusing on early-career scientists. For Women in Science Germany is among them.

Together with Research in Germany and the German Commission for UNESCO, the two award recipients will share insights into their academic careers and provide practical information and guidance for researchers who are considering conducting research in Germany as women.
