Women scientists have transformed biomedical research with their discoveries, and their leadership is needed to drive life sciences into the future. Still, women in science are underrepresented at senior levels of most research institutes. Their voices are essential in discussions about work-life balance, the need for mentorship to guide career development, and networking.
These will be the focus of a TweetChat on Twitter on November 9, 13.00 – 14.00h, hosted by Novartis. The chat will feature scientific thought leaders from industry and academia, using the hashtag #WomenInScience.
We invite you to join the conversation, via Twitter or you can stop by at room MXC 315 and join Prof. Anna Fontcuberta I Morral, panelists on the chat on behalf of the EPFL-WISH Foundation.
All are welcome! Just bring your mobile device or laptop.
