It was natural to me, I was always better at STEM courses since a young kid.
Your organization field and mission:
Establishing a leading research unit at BSRC Fleming to advance biomolecular mass spectrometry and structural biology for biomedical innovation.
Please tell us briefly about your role in the company / at your organization:
Establish mass spectrometry protocols to answer structural biology questions.
Your interest in STEM
First: My physics professor at high school, amazing person, great at transferring knowledge.
Currently: Professor Dame Carol Vivien Robinson, great story as a woman in science. Took an 8 year gap to raise her children, she was the first woman professor in the department of chemistry at both the University of Cambridge (2001) and the University of Oxford (2009).
Your studies
Changing fields, from chemical engineering to analytical chemistry and biochemistry.
You at work
They have a gender equality plan in place.
Apply my knowledge at different countries and scientific backgrounds.
Your point of view
I want to see more women in leading positions and society being more supportive top support family life.
To finish with
Family, equality.
Establish myself as an independent scientist, the funding is limited.
I want to spread my experience on my scientific subject because it’s under-represented in Greece and North Europe.
