With an interactive image and sound show, sparing no effort or expense, Dutch research funder NWO launched its strategy for the coming years in the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague on 13 April (Click here for an impression). At the end of the meeting, all guests were presented with an ingeniously designed booklet, in which words and images were combined to portray science.

But the real discoveries, breakthroughs and innovations are provided by researchers in science. And, of course, they are all men. Aren't female researchers in the picture at NWO?
