The L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science programme promotes the careers of women in science by awarding grants to talented young scientists. Six of them were invited to come to CERN: Zohra Dhouafli from Tunisia (neuroscience and biochemistry), Menattallah Elserafy from Egypt (molecular biology and genetics), Biola María Javierre Martínez from Spain (genomics), Priscilla Kolibea Mante from Ghana (neuroscience), Mika Nomoto from Japan (molecular biology and phytopathology) and Nurcan Tuncbag from Turkey (bioinformatics). They were joined by Karen Hallberg from Argentina, an expert in condensed matter and winner of the 2019 L’Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science award.
