This coming Tuesday (11th of February) is the International day of Women and Girls in Science. The IQCC has currently a rather favourable balance in gender ratio of staff members, both at the Master level (54%), PhD level (47%), postdocs (21%) and permanent researchers staff (29%). Notably, out of the 4 most recent permanent members, 2 are men and 2 are women, reinforcing one of the goals of the IQCC of striving to have a gender-balanced permanent staff in the near future.
In order to celebrate this day of the 11th of February, next week Dr. Sílvia Simon will moderate the round table with Dr. Laia Vicens about “Impulsem les vocacions científiques” (Centre Cultural La Mercè – Girona, 10am). On 14th of February, Dr. Sílvia Simon will participate in a round table at Ràdio Girona FM. Also, Dr. Sílvia Simon will do a talk a #100tifiques (Institut Castell d’Estela, Amer) and Dr. Laia Vicens will participate at exposition “Ciència amb Denominació d’Origen Girona; Les nostres veïnes, les nostres científiques” (10-16/02, Girona). On 15th of February, MSc. Cristina Berga, Núria Alsina and Dr. Sílvia Simon will be at “ciència en joc” (La Marfà – Girona, 10-12h).
Furthermore, 11 of our IQCC women (Dr. Anna Pla-Quintana, Dr. Sílvia Simon, Prof. Sílvia Osuna, Prof. Anna Roglans, MSc. Cristina Duran, MSc. Najoua Choukairi, Dr. Laia Vicens, MSc. Helena Giramé, MSc. Anju Manickoth, MSc. Judit Gálvez, MSc. Núria Alsina) are participating in the International Day of Women and Girls in Sciencie initiative of UdG, where more than 50 researchers are being recognized as #ExpertaUdG.
