There is gender gap in the research landscape. The number of female professors has been rising over the past few years, but female scientists are still underrepresented at higher positions and in leadership roles. Why is that? And how can we reduce this gap?

In this episode discuss the gender gap in science with Marian Joëls, prof. of Neuroscience and dean of Medical Sciences at the UMCG who actively strives for the position of women in science and Marco Versluis gynaecologist, researcher and teacher at the UMCG, who is dedicated to equity in healthcare. 

*Disclaimer: Diversity in the research landscape entails more than just the balance between male and female scientists, but in this episode we focused mainly on gender differences.
