In honor of Women's Heritage Month, the Office of Institutional Diversity and Inclusion is pleased to present "Picture a Scientist."  “Picture a Scientist” chronicles the groundswell of researchers who are writing a new chapter for women scientists. Biologist Nancy Hopkins, chemist Raychelle Burks, and geologist Jane Willenbring lead viewers on a journey deep into their own experiences in the sciences, ranging from brutal harassment to years of subtle slights. Along the way, from cramped laboratories to spectacular field stations, we encounter scientific luminaries - including social scientists, neuroscientists, and psychologists - who provide new perspectives on how to make science itself more diverse, equitable, and open to all.

A virtual viewing of the film will be available from March 7-9 followed by a panel discussion on March 10th.  We will join a distinguished panel of women including Dr. Jessica Sparks, Dr. Stacey Lowery Bretz, Dean Beena Sukumaran, and University Ambassador Dr. Renate Crawford, and discuss the role of women in STEM.

Links to the film will be sent out March 7th to all registrants.
