We are delighted to present the inaugural 'Women in Toxicology: 2021” series of article collections.
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 Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (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 Toxicology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all areas of Neurotoxicology.
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 Neurotoxicology, and Journal Frontiers in Toxicology, as defined in their mission statements (learn more

Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
