Today, we celebrate women and girls in science! π¬
Weβre proud to shine a light on the amazing women working at the Joint Research Centre. From artificial intelligence to cancer research, from foresight to nuclear research, they shape EU policy with their science every day.
Women make up 40% of the JRCβs scientific teams, and that number keeps growing. But thereβs still more to do to make Europe the best place for women in science.
Hear more from some of our scientists and get inspired!

Join us on the second episode where we explore the digital transformation in industry and its impact on competitiveness. Our guests, *Adolfo Morais* , Deputy Regional Minister of Science from the Basque Country and *Helin Yontar* , an expert on AI education, share their insights on how digitalisation is changing the EU industry.
At the Joint Research Centre of the βͺ@EuropeanCommission we begin a journey in which 200 territories will use their own potential to innovate and learn from others to transform. This is what innovation for place-based transformation is all about.

Come along while we explore what circularity really means, why it matters and how is shaping Europes future.
We speak with *Antonio Delre* from the European Commissionβs Joint Research Centre, who explains the difference between circularity and sustainability. We listen to Dalarna in Sweden and Normandy in France, where local actors share how circular approaches are helping transform industry and bring new life to the plastics sector. Finally, we travel to Sofia, Bulgaria, where representatives from different regions explain how the EU Preparatory Action is helping them turn their ideas into action.

Emilia GΓ³mez, lead scientist of the European Centre for Algorithmic Transparency (ECAT), explains the concept of trustworthy AI, why it matters and what role this concept plays in the EUβs AI Regulation.
ECAT is managed by the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, in close cooperation with the Directorate General for Communications Networks, Content and Technology (DG CONNECT).

Through rigorous research and analysis, the Joint Research Centre (JRC) has supported the development of the AI Act, informing AI terminology, risk classification, technical requirements and contributing to the ongoing development of harmonised standards. In fact, the research produced by the JRC has been fundamental in shaping the EUs AI policies and ensuring their effective implementation.
