L'Oreal honours Malaysian women scientists

A UNESCO report shows women make up about 28% of researchers worldwide but only 3% of Nobel Prize in science have been awarded to women thus far. The numbers may be small, but women scientists continue to lead groundbreaking research across the world.

This year, the L’Oréal-Unesco Fellowship For Women in Science were awarded to three Malaysian women who turn to science as a tool to improve lives and the environment.
