To show by example that all scientific professions are mixed, to decipher stereotypes, to overcome preconceived ideas, this is the ambition of the "Sciences, a woman's profession" day which, every year since 2017, has brought together nearly 500 high school girls from the Lyon Academy to convince them to have confidence in their ability to succeed.
The 7th edition of the "Sciences un métier de femmes" meeting day, co-organized by Isabelle Vauglin (CRAL) and Audrey Mazur-Palandre (LabEx ASLAN), the ICAR laboratory and the Femmes & Sciences association, took place on Thursday March 30, 2023.
LabEx CeLyA joined the event again this year, thanks to the involvement of several "godmothers": - Barbara Nicolas, researcher, Director of Research at the CNRS CREATIS laboratory (sponsor 2021 and 2022) - Anne-Sophie Evrard, researcher at the UMRESTTE laboratory, (2022 sponsor) - Valérie Janillon, ACOUCITE associate director
