In the past years, Lynn Roseberry has contributed to increased transparency in recruitment and promotion processes, a better gender balance in the composition of groups and committees, and a newly established mentor scheme for young researchers at CBS. In October, the EU formally acknowledged CBS, as the first among Danish universities, for its quality research environment. This recognition was in many ways a result of Lynn's efforts.
