The LNVH Women Professors Monitor 2022 shows that the share of women is decreasing significantly at every step of the academic career ladder. At the end of 2021, the average percentage of women professors at universities in the Netherlands is 26.7%. #MVH2022

Scientific evidence is not always enough, we need #values that will lead our work. 📢Prof. @BPrainsack from @UniVienna, is the chair of the #EthicsGroup_EU that advised EU Commissioners on values in #CrisisManagement. 👉Look at the #ethics statement: sapea.info/crisis
Very happy to announce that my book on #expertise and #digitalhealthcare has become available online: link.springer.com/book/10.10… Deeply grateful to all those who helped and supported me!
