"Today we are celebrating International Women's Day in Science at the Forum of Women Scientists of Uzbekistan. I am proud that supporting women in the field of science is a priority in our country.

   The numbers themselves tell us: 48 percent of scientists in Uzbekistan are women! Their research, discoveries, and dedication inspire and show that science is necessary for them, and they are necessary for science.

   We will work together with the international community to build a future where science serves peace and prosperity!" Saida Mirziyoyeva wrote on her Telegram channel on February 11.
