Cafe Scientifique. Women and Girls in Science

24 February 2022Science Popularization

"Women should know they have their place in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and the right to participate in scientific progress."

On February 11 at the Open Readings Cafe Scientifique event I gave a lecture marking the International Day of Women and Girls in Science.

Lecture on women in science

During the lecture I:

  • Presented women scientists' contributions to the exact sciences and discoveries in a puzzle format
  • Shared statistics on girls who enrolled in and graduated from Vilnius University's Faculty of Physics
  • Encouraged young women to pursue scientific careers without hesitation

A video recording of the lecture is available.
