Look at our own @giordanisilvia!
She was Postdoc at my grup @TCD_physics @tcddublin - read a bout it in the article!
I am happy to see her growth and success story!
Great example of #WomenInSTEM and role model for girls based in Ireland ☘️👩🏽🔬

More depressing news: gender success rates are not really changing. The fig below shows the ERC AdG results for the last 6 years (2015-2020, w 2020 on top) by panel.
E.g. for Chemical & Chem Eng panels:
PE5: 5/66 (<8%)
2019-2020: 0/17 (0%)
PE8: 9/80 (11%)
2019-2020: 2/26 (<8%)
