View Article  Vampire or Angel?
Many of us are lucky enough to know people who radiate positive energy; friends with whom you feel restored to inner health; colleagues who leave you feeling good about yourself. These “Energy Angels” give freely of their time and talents, without giving away themselves. (People who give, give, give to the point where they secretly resent it are not Energy Angels.)   more »

View Article  Cover Letters, Resumes and the Job Hunter…What’s it All About?
Any good job hunter needs a resume package. The cover letter and resume always go together and do the same basic thing in slightly different ways. A job hunter without both of them will probably not get very far in the search for a good career position.   more »

View Article  Meeting report: Spontaneous Models of Human Disease
The aim of this meeting, held by Euroscicon, was to check the state-of-the-art about the novel findings on the pathogenic mechanisms of human diseases and immunotherapy. The excellent speakers provided very interesting updated information on the use of animal models developing spontaneous diseases. Using experimental and transgenic models is necessary to unravel human pathological processes. Valid animal models of diseases are of greater importance to better clarify human disease molecular pathways and to provide newer target for potential pharmacological treatment. Nowadays, we have lots of “artificial” models (i.e. genetic mice, chimeras) providing information about “natural” regulatory mechanisms that could indicate novel potential therapeutic targets   more »

Welcome to Mums in Science

This site has been designed as a portal for busy mums who work or have worked in science.

Too many women leave science due to the constraints of motherhood. Some struggle, and work part time, at the expense of advancing their career. Others change their career to fit in with their children, whilst working within some area of science.

Our aims are :-

  • to create a community to provide mutual support,
  • to provide information to those who have the challenge of bringing up children and maintaining a career in science, whether full or part time, or outside mainstream science.

This site is updated regularly with new articles and occasional special offers. Everything is accessible on the site. However, if you would like to receive notices of new additions to the site you can subscribe to the site and receive e-mails as soon as a new article is posted to your selected categories or to all the site.

We welcome comments about MumsinScience, what you like, what you don't like, or how we can improve.

PLEASE LET US KNOW, just email comments@mumsinscience.net
