"Picture a Scientist" Further Discussion and Survey:
The first small group discussion will be held on May 10th from 12:00-1:00. Please use this link for the Teams meeting:
Join WiNS, WiNGS, and CFW in small group discussions regarding the film "Picture a Scientist". These discussions are intended to keep the conversation going from the viewing and discussion WiNS hosted in February. These discussions will occur from noon to 1 PM on 5/10 and 5/17 and will be followed by a management roundtable. Please RSVP for the discussions using the following survey as we will be creating small breakout discussion groups with a moderator, note attendance to both sessions is not mandatory please join as you can. The first will be a general discussion of your perceptions of the film along with generating some potential questions for the roundtable. The second discussion will revolve around your thoughts on how the science community can be more inclusive. On 5/24 there will be a panel discussion with lab management regarding their impressions of the film "Picture a Scientist".
