the technical nature of this activity requires a permanent update of knowledge and skills, and one can quickly lose footing without regular practice.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we can note the effects linked to the absence of women in the Covid-19 debate.\u00a0Large budgets are dedicated to research on Covid-19.\u00a0Women researchers, not being positioned as massively as men in the crisis, risk missing out on funding that could increase their productivity &#8211;
