Dr Yvonne Couch - How to Make a Female Professor

Dr Yvonne Couch, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

In this blog Yvonne explores the challenges women face in academia and the need for cultural change. Despite increasing female representation in scientific fields, many women disappear from the academic pipeline, and even fewer make it to becoming a full Professors. So how do you deal with this? Continue to push more and more ECRs into the system, or take a more holistic approach? The article suggests strategies to retain and support women in their careers, emphasising the importance of organisational and systemic change.
