Women at the TYC
We are continually striving to further increase our diversity. One of our goals is to increase exposure to the incredibly talented and inspiring scientists working within our institute, by highlighting female TYC members in a series of insightful written portraits. Find out about their ground-breaking research, the people who influenced them and their career highlights. Get ready to be inspired.
