About this event

For this year's celebration of International Women's Day, the ECR Network at DoM is pleased to host a virtual screening of the documentary film "Picture a Scientist".

Picture a Scientist is a feature-length documentary film chronicling the groundswell of researchers who are writing a new chapter for women scientists. A biologist, a chemist and a geologist lead viewers on a journey deep into their own experiences in the sciences, overcoming brutal harassment, institutional discrimination, and years of subtle slights to revolutionize the culture of science. From cramped laboratories to spectacular field stations, we also encounter scientific luminaries who provide new perspectives on how to make science itself more diverse, equitable, and open to all.

We will provide you on the 8th of March with an active link and password to watch this film, and it will be available for 72h. You will be able to log in and out as many times as you want during this time frame.
