Women in Science: Forging New Pathways in Green Science

Science and the L’Oréal Foundation are proud to bring you our next Women in Science booklet, this time with a focus on women pursuing research in "green science". The stories you'll read here feature some extraordinary women whose passion for discovery, and compassion for our planet and its peoples, fuels their search for answers to difficult issues such as global climate change, famine, drought, and epidemics. You will read about women working across the globe, from Uzbekistan to Colombia, doing their research in unusual and interesting locations, from drought-stricken parts of Africa to the tropical jungles of Central America.
We hope that you enjoy their stories and take inspiration from their personal tales.

Women in Science: Forging New Pathways in Biology
Science and the L’Oréal Foundation have teamed up once again to bring you the latest Women in Science booklet focusing on 16 women in five different areas of biology research. The essays about these scientists give you an idea of the differences and similarities between their jobs as well as some insight into their personal triumphs and struggles as they have built successful and meaningful careers. The interviews span the career spectrum from new scientists to more established researchers who have experienced the many ups and downs of a life in biology research.
We hope that you enjoy their stories and take inspiration from their personal tales.
