On February 11th, the International Day of Women and Girls in Science was celebrated, a date dedicated to recognizing the fundamental role that women play in the scientific field and promoting gender equality in this area. Throughout history, numerous female scientists have made significant contributions, although their work has often been overlooked. Today, it remains essential to encourage girls’ access to STEM education (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) and eliminate the barriers that hinder their participation. This day serves as a reminder of the importance of continuing to work towards a more inclusive and diverse scientific community.
