As I’m sure you are aware, the scientific and technical industries can be very male-dominated, so our Women Revolutionizing series was made to showcase the stories of female leaders across those industries, and listen in on their experiences.
Our aim is to inspire the next generation of women, by giving an insight into what attracted individuals to this career, their experiences and words of advice for those either considering joining the industry or hoping to progress in their careers.
I help connect commercial professionals within the life sciences and diagnostics industry with biotechnology companies across Europe and I had the privilege of speaking to Geraldine PIGNOT on the barriers she’s faced as a woman in the life sciences industry, as well as her insight into work-life balance and advice for other women in the industry. Geraldine PIGNOT is a Urological Surgeon and Cancer Practitioner at Institut Paoli Calmettes.
