To celebrate IWD on 8 March, we have put together the following beautiful infographic showcasing 10 inspirational women in microbiology. Our #OnThisDay volunteer team researched the list of scientists, and our previous Journal Social Media Editor, Maja Rischer, did the graphic design work to produce the final infographic. A huge thanks to all involved in putting this together!

An equal world is an enabled world. How will you help forge a gender equal world? Celebrate women’s achievement. Raise awareness against bias. Take action for equality.
