For ages, women have faced systematic exclusion from scientific inquiry, often overlooked as both participants and subjects. Professor Anna Philpott will take us through her remarkable journey as a researcher and scientific leader, offering her perspective and insights along the way. She will then join a panel of experts and thought leaders to delve into the profound impact women can make when leading scientific teams. The discussion will range from the importance of assembling strong scientific teams and the necessity of women in medicine to examining whether imbalanced teams could be linked to injuries reported by women in professional sports using equipment designed for men.
