Smashing Stereotypes: Mutual Respect, Key to Embracing Diversity.

Faith H A Osier1, Linda M Murungi2.   

Abstract

The path to a successful international career in science is daunting for most, and women in Africa are no exception. We are grossly under-represented as senior authors in high-impact publications and keynote speakers at international conferences, and rarely head major funding networks. Smashing long-held stereotypes may ease the journey.
