Who are your role models in science? And how do they look like? To be honest – it really doesn’t matter how they look like. Because #science looks like YOU.

Watch the docuseries “Not the Science Type” featuring four inspiring female scientists as they made their way in fields ranging from biology to engineering, to science and technology-based applications and innovations. They did not always think of themselves as the “science type”, but after confronting gender, racial, and age discrimination and coming out on top, they now advocate for a more inclusive science.

The film breaks down outmoded notions about what a scientist looks like or does in order to inspire you – the next generation of STEM leaders.

The film and a follow up panel discussion to further deepen this topic, was part of Berlin Science Week 2021 and organised by 3M.
