Female Career Award

Since 2018, our biannual Female Career Award has recognized female researchers affiliated to institutions other than UNIL who have had outstanding academic careers. The aim? To value and promote female academic careers.

The award ceremony consists of a seminar open to the whole community, presented by the winner, followed by a round table open to doctoral and post-doctoral students, as well as Master's students, to ask questions and highlight female academic careers.
