#WomenInELLIS
Get to know Indrė Žliobaitė, Professor at University of Helsinki 🇫🇮, ELLIS Member at the ELLIS Unit Helsinki. Her research areas include robust machine learning, complex systems in nature and society, philosophy of AI.

She says a career highlight that is meaningful to her is when she was interviewed by science historians from Tilburg University about her pioneering work on fairness-aware machine learning.

Additionally, she says, “I've met many early career women researchers, who said they were inspired by my research and my ways of working and they would like to be like me. I think examples are important, it's also important to have low-barrier events where early career women can meet and talk senior researchers.”
