Hannah MacDougall accepted into Mothers Leading Science

Assistant Professor Hannah MacDougall was accepted into the 2025 cohort for Mothers Leading Science, a leadership program for research intensive faculty in the health sciences who are also mothers to young children. This program’s goal is to foster professional and personal growth for research-intensive faculty in the health sciences who are raising school-age and/or young children.  This program was created at the University of Minnesota in 2017 to address the lack of representation of women in senior leadership, the high rates of attrition of female scientists and the challenges of women in academic health sciences research at the intersections of career, gender, and motherhood.
