\n

This International Women\u2019s Day, under the global theme Give To Gain<\/strong>, we bring together researchers at SnT, who recognise that building an inclusive research community is a shared responsibility. Their experiences show how giving knowledge, visibility, and support strengthens research, innovation, and the people behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nMeet the researchers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Progress Zivuku<\/strong> | Research associate, 6G wireless networks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Progress\u2019s journey into technology began unexpectedly. After applying to study medicine, she was placed in engineering – an experience that ultimately led her to cutting-edge research on 6G and future wireless networks. Her path from Zimbabwe through Algeria, Italy, and Luxembourg has shaped her resilience, adaptability, and belief in the value of showing up consistently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Mahdis Jalali<\/strong> | Postdoctoral researcher, satellite communications<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by her father, a university professor, and mathematician Maryam Mirzakhani – the first woman to win the Fields Medal – Mahdis develops smarter satellite communication systems to ensure signals are transmitted safely from space to Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Enriqueta Patricia Becerra Sanchez<\/strong> | Postdoctoral researcher, AI and language models<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patricia holds a PhD in computer science from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia. At SnT, she works on artificial intelligence projects that help machines understand human language, including tools that support accountants in verifying legal documents and VAT compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ilora Maity<\/strong> | Postdoctoral researcher, satellite network resources<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After leaving a stable software development role, Ilora chose research as a way to create greater societal impact. Today, she develops network slicing frameworks for satellite systems what she describes as \u201csmart invisible highways in the sky”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flor Ortiz<\/strong> | Senior R&T Scientist, Distributed and Intelligent Connectivity (DISCO) Research Group, LIST <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Mexico to Luxembourg via Madrid and Bologna, Flor works on integrating AI into satellite communications. She believes research needs more humanity and creativity, qualities she sees as essential, yet often undervalued, in science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nAlso giving their perspective<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gender equality in research is not a challenge for women to solve alone. Three male colleagues at SnT share why inclusion matters to them and what they believe needs to change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jorge Meira<\/strong> | Postdoctoral researcher, AI-driven logistics, SnT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A native Brazilian with a passion for music that led him to algorithms, Jorge completed his bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s in computer science in Brazil before joining SnT for his PhD. He returned to Brazil to teach, then came back to SnT as a postdoctoral researcher. His research trains machines to optimise delivery routes as global supply chains grow increasingly complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Arno Deimer<\/strong> | Doctoral candidate, collaborative machine learning, SnT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From Luxembourg to Geneva and back, Arno\u2019s academic path has been shaped by international collaboration. Now a doctoral candidate at SnT, he\u2019s pioneering collaborative machine learning \u2014 enabling financial institutions to jointly train fraud detection models without sharing sensitive data, navigating the challenges of privacy regulations like GDPR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thilo Matthias Pollmeier<\/strong> | Doctoral researcher, Entrepreneurship, Innovation, and New Technology research group, SnT<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thilo left corporate life in Cologne to join the research world at SnT. He\u2019s on a mission to prove that sustainability isn\u2019t about limitation \u2014 it\u2019s about transformation. His work explores how companies can thrive financially while doing good for people and the planet, challenging the false choice between profit and purpose in today\u2019s rapidly changing world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nWhat first sparked your interest in science and technology?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For many women in research, the path into technology is not linear.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \nI discovered that the tech world also offers incredible ways to make a difference, and that realisation sparked my passion. Looking back, I\u2019m grateful it happened, because it helped me find a path I truly enjoy.<\/h3>\n\n

    \nWhat challenges have you faced as a woman in your field?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Despite progress, gender imbalance remains a daily reality in many research environments. Mahdis Jalali, felt the pressure early on.<\/p>\n\n\n
