Women at Inria are committed to advancing science

Changed on 11/02/2026

To mark International Day of Women and Girls in Science, Inria is honoring women scientists through a collection of articles entitled "Elles font le numérique" (Women in Digital). Launched less than a year ago, this series of ten profiles reveals the inspiring careers and research work of women scientists who bring prestige to Inria through the excellence of their research and their commitment.

Role models

Researchers, engineers, doctoral students, post-doctoral students... They embody the diversity of backgrounds and disciplines and prove every day that scientific ambition and excellence have no gender. Their diverse trajectories reflect a common passion: pushing the boundaries of knowledge.

Discover or rediscover our "Women in Digital" collection now and be inspired by these women who are shaping the future of science.

This collection was created at the Inria Centres at the University of Bordeaux and Saclay. Soon, all centres will add to this collection with new portraits, which will always be available on inria.fr.

A strong commitment to professional equality

Beyond these portraits, Inria affirms its concrete commitment to gender parity. Its proactive policy is reflected in targeted actions: career support, work-life balance, combating stereotypes, etc.

Here are some of the results of its equality policy.
