International Women's Day 2021

We join the commemoration and promotion of an egalitarian future highlighting some female profiles of the Institution

An equal future without stigmas, stereotypes or gender violence is the main objective of the International Women's Day and, both men and women, we can commemorate and contribute to creating a sustainable and peaceful tomorrow with equal rights and opportunities for all; this with the participation and leadership of women in all areas.

For its part, the Faculty of Medicine has been in charge of creating opportunities for students, workers, teachers and researchers alike. That is why below we present some of the female profiles that stand out in our Institution:

María Lourdes Mendoza MorenoSupervisor in intendancy area

María is a woman who has been working at the Faculty of Medicine for 16 years, for almost 15 years she was mayor in the Department of Biochemistry and a year ago she had the opportunity to be the supervisor in the maintenance area.

I do very different things, since before it was a space only, and now I have 30 people under my charge […] Since I was 21 years old I have been working in this institution. My children grew up here, I can consider this institution as my second family. Belonging to this instance is a privilege, because we can achieve what we set out to do❞

Estefanía Buenrostro PadillaMSO student and leader of Women's Rondalla

In Mexico, not long ago (women) were given the space to represent us, so having the power to demonstrate in any field is relevant. In my plans as the leader of rondalla is to continue empowering the teammates of the group, with learning, discipline, and other values so that they feel safe and with self-esteem, without complexes of what they will say❞

Women have always been involved in science since ancient times, but my perception is that for many years they were seen in the background, as assistants or secondary, and not as generators of ideas. Currently things have changed, these days the presence of scientists in the areas of chemistry and health has increased a lot, however, it is still a challenge to open the way for women❞

Skills and Goals:

  • Constancy with what you want
  • Patience (there is no short way)

Sometimes I have noticed that there is a lack of representation of women as teachers, since the first semesters I noticed that there were more male doctors, and well sometimes you want to get closer with someone else❞

  • Get inspired to meet your goals
  • Have a support network with other women
