Public perception of science is still dominated by the image of men, and male scientists are interviewed and quoted more frequently in the media than their female colleagues. Therefore, the BIH wants to represent women scientists with its portrait series and illustrate their inspiring contribution to translational research, from basic research to clinical application.
For me, being a scientist means living research. This means that data itself has no value. Data must be brought to life and we are working to make data actually come to life.
