13 February 2024
“Don’t ever stay quiet. Don’t try to behave like a boy. Be different. Trust yourself and your intuition. Don’t be afraid. Be brave.”
The first video of the Women [& girls] in Science 2024 series features Gabriela Retamales, Doctoral Researcher in Biotechnology at the Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine (LCSB), interdisciplinary research centre of the University of Luxembourg.
How did I get here? That is a very good question. Life gives you many opportunities, and you must be brave enough to take them.
Gabriela Retamales
The video series “Women [& Girls] in Science” is a collaboration between the institutions that form Research Luxembourg and MEGA (Ministry of Equality between Gender and Diversity).
