Women in Science

Barbara McClintock Seminar Series at the MPIPZ

Within our institute we wish to increase the visibility of women in science, as female researchers are still underrepresented, especially in higher ranks of academia.
Our newly established annual ‘Barbara McClintock Seminar Series’ will host outstanding female scientists within the field of plant science.
The invited speaker will be part of an informal round table discussion, talking about her career as well as sharing her experience as a woman in science.
