Ishrat Jameel: biotechnologist from Pakistan - OWSD Visions (2022)

Every scientist has a story... but not every scientist is a storyteller.

As part of the OWSD Visions project, which works with local filmmakers in developing countries to help them tell the story of women scientists in their communities, Syeda Areesha Zaidi introduce us to Ishrat Jameel, a biotechnologist who works for sequencing flora in Pakistan to save biodiversity. In her opinion, women's empowerment should not be just a statement, it should be implemented in the scientific field. Watch to learn more about Dr. Jameel's work.
