To celebrate the 50th anniversary of women’s right to vote in Switzerland, the National Centers of Competence in Research (NCCRs) across Switzerland will release each week a series of videos showcasing women working in science. The videos are targeted at women and girls of school and undergraduate age (16 -22 years old) to show what day to day life as a scientist is like and make it more accessible. We’re excited to be part of the #NCCRWomen campaign and to share our videos featuring five NCCR Chemical Biology women researchers.
