You go girl

L’oreal and UNESCO are awarding their international "For women in science" scholarship to dr. Maja Zagmajster, one of the junior scientists at "my" faculty. We are all very happy and pleased that she received the award. She has been recognized for her work in researching the biodiversity of subterranean fauna in western karst region. She is the first Slovenian junior scientist to receive the scholarship. She will be receiveng her award in Paris. Read the story here (in Slovene) or here (official page). On the other hand, some of our research facilities and institutions are "overstaffed" with women, and missing technical people for heavier and more technical work. .. Or so I hear.
