We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Pharmacology 'Women in Inflammation Pharmacology 2021” series of article collections. This is part of series that we are hosting throughout Frontiers in Pharmacology:
Women in Obstetric and Pediatric Pharmacology: 2021 Women in Integrative and Regenerative Pharmacology: 2021 Women in Pharmacology of Anti-Cancer Drugs: 2021 Women in Pharmacology of Infectious Diseases: 2021 Women in Drug Metabolism and Transport: 2021 Women in Cardiovascular and Smooth Muscle Pharmacology: 2021 Women in Inflammation Pharmacology: 2021 Women in Pharmacogenetics and Pharmacogenomics: 2021 Women in Pharmacoepidemiology: 2021 Women in Neuropharmacology: 2021 Women in Drugs Outcomes Research and Policies: 2021 Women in Pharmacology of Ion Channels and Channelopathies: 2021 At present, according to
UNESCO, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
Therefore, Frontiers in Pharmacology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all areas of Inflammation Pharmacology.
The work presented here highlights the diversity of research performed across the entire breadth of Pharmacology research and presents advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.
Please note:
We especially welcome manuscripts whereto be considered for this collection, the first or last author should be a researcher who identifies themselves as a woman.
Different Article Types can be submitted to the Research Topic including Original Research, Review, Mini-Review, Brief Research Report, Perspective articles, among others. You can find detailed information
here.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section Inflammation Pharmacology and Journal Frontiers in Pharmacology to which they are submitted, and Journal Frontiers in Pharmacology, as defined in their mission statements (learn more
