Women in STEM | A conversation with Prof. Judith Gobin

Gender stereotypes and biases poses multiple challenges for women and girls in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). A field where women and girls are underrepresented.

In this episode, we interviewed Professor Judith Gobin, from Trinidad and Tobago. She is a Marine Biologist with more than 35 years of research experience in the field and significant academic contributions to the knowledge of Marine Biodiversity in Trinidad and Tobago and the Caribbean. Prof. Gobin became the first female Professor of Science in the Faculty of Science and Technology, at The University of the West Indies, St. Augustine Campus. She is currently Head of the Department of Life Sciences.

During this interview, Professor Gobin’s message is addressed especially to encourage girls and young women to pursue education and careers in STEM and grab their dreams in this field.
