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 Experimental Pharmacology and Drug Discovery.
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 where to 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.
