As a result of this societies silence over decades on women health issues, diseases like breast cancer, cervical cancer, sexual infections etc are on the rise. These taboos & cultural factors created an obstacle for women to a free discussion on certain physical ailments with their family members, which eventually might lead to a delay in accessing the required health care. In 2012 United Sisters Foundation decided to break the silence on breast cancer by empowering women.

During the stay, I worked with Dr. Raghav Rajan’s group of the neurobiology of complex learned behaviours which investigates how song learning and initiation is controlled by the brain, using the zebra finch as model organism. The project I was part of addressed the question, if the distance to the female during courtship influences the song and dance of the adult male zebra finch. Pune is a growing city with almost as many inhabitants as Berlin, located in the state of Maharashtra, 150 km south-east from its capital Mumbai. Pune is a center for automobile and IT industries, but due to its many colleges, universities and research institutes, the city is also called “the Oxford of the East”. 2 Preparations – Before Going to India 2.1 Funding and Scholarships Funding my stay in India turned out to be a bit difficult because the university’s general scholarship programme A New Passage to India by the DAAD ended mid of 2016 and generating money for a consecutive programme failed due to disagreement between the DAAD and the Indian committee.
