About

We are delighted to present the inaugural Frontiers in Urology 'Women in Pediatric, Adolescent, and Developmental Urology" series of article collections.

At present, 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 Urology is proud to offer this platform to promote the work of women scientists, across all fields of pediatric, adolescent, and developmental urology.

The work presented here highlights the diversity of research performed across the entire breadth of pediatric, adolescent, and developmental urology research and presents advances in theory, experiment, and methodology with applications to compelling problems.

Please note: to be considered for this collection, the first or last author should be a researcher who identifies as a woman.
