As a medical researcher, I’m used to apply for grants, nationally and internationally. Yet, when looking at the number of female principal investigators (PIs) and moreover the number of women receiving funding, it’s a tiny tiny number.
Why?
Many women don’t even dare to try and start applying. Lots of self-doubts, lack of role models, supportive colleagues, and supervisors to encourage them.
I love the competition with myself to apply for funding, by writing my best possible application. If I fail, I just try again over and over. That’s the way to success, never give up trying.
