Brady Lab concerns understanding the role and development of transcriptional networks in plants. In the interview Siobhan speaks about the some of the challenges faced by women in science:
Finding the right time to have a baby is one example. I ended up having my first child five months into my position as a PI and the experience was one of the most challenging in my life. I was trying to find my feet being a new mum at the same time as being a new lab leader, writing grants and teaching.
