March 8 marks International Women’s Day (IWD), an annual call-to-action to press forward and progress gender parity. The campaign has gained increasing traction in recent years, with the theme this year calling both men and women to #PressforProgress across society. The STEM industries are no exception: whilst significant progress has been made, it is widely acknowledged that STEM careers have traditionally been a male-dominated area. And, although the number of women graduating in a core STEM subjects continues to grow, last year only 24% of STEM graduates in the UK were female.
This IWD, FSG has published a series of interviews with influential women across the life sciences with the hope of sharing what it means to be a woman in science, and inspiring younger generations to consider a career in STEM. Through this series of ‘Day in the life’ pieces, hosted on FSG’s eCommunities, an inspirational group of women – from PhD candidates to professors – provide a close look at the highs and lows of their daily experiences and reveal their female role models.
You can view all the ‘Day in the life’ interviews featuring women from across STEM subjects – from regenerative medicine to bioanalysis and everything inbetween – here. Plus, learn more about why IWD is so important to FSG in the video above, featuring FSG’s Editorial Director, Laura Dormer, and Senior Manager in Publishing Solutions, Joanne Walker.
