Núria Torras participates in the International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2021
Last 11 of February we celebrated worldwide the 6th International Day of Women and Girls in Science, with plenty of activities to help eliminating long-standing biases and gender stereotypes that are steering girls and women away from science related fields.
One of these science disseminations activities was held by Núria Torras, researcher working at Brighter Project in the Biomimetic systems for cell engineering group from Elena Martinez at IBEC, Barcelona. She participated in the annual event 100tifiques, organized by the Catalan Foundation for Research and Innovation (FCRI) and the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), an initiative that aims to bring science closer to schools and claim the female scientific 11
