About the program
This program offers young female scientists (PhD students, PhDs and others) the opportunity to reflect on their professional situations, develop a strategy for embarking or continuing on their career paths, receive targeted further training, and extend their personal and scientific networks. The aim, actively supported by all institutions of the ETH Domain, is to support women in their scientific careers and in the process to fix the 'leaky pipeline' of women in science.
