Whilst the number of women in STEM subjects remains relatively low globally , in Brazil numbers are flourishing . Presently one of the largest investors in science and technology in Latin America and the Caribbean , a study published on Elsevier ’ s Connect platform has revealed that the country ’ s focus on social and gender equality has transformed Brazil into a country with a diverse , skilled workforce .

“ I came from an infrastructure segment of work and joined Elsevier and the healthcare industry over 20 years ago . I have worked both in the public and private sector , for small and large institutions as well as big corporations ,” she says .
