Women’s History Month honors the contributions that women have made to our society in every field.
In recognition of the month, just a handful of the women making an impact in basic science at Duke University School of Medicine discussed what inspired them to pursue research as a career, the surprises they’re seeing in their work, and some advice for aspiring scientists.
