Improving science and medicine by preventing burnout in STEMM moms with Dr Isabel Torres
Wednesday Jun 29, 2022
Wednesday Jun 29, 2022
Dr Isabel Torres leads the advocacy organization Mothers in Science. She had been collecting data and providing solutions through science, stories, networking, toolkits and polices. I wanted to speak with Isabel because as a mom in STEMM, which includes medicine, I wasn’t aware of the gender barriers and bias I faced. I assumed I was somehow failing. But Isabelle and others have shown that mothers are penalized in their scientific careers but fathers are not. This difference points to a systemic problem which Isabel is fighting to dismantle.
