Virtual screening, panel discussion on "Picture a Scientist"

The Association for Women in Science West Virginia and Women in Natural Resources present a virtual screening of "Picture a Scientist" and post-screening panel discussion with faculty.

View the screening at your leisure from April 28-30, then a panel Q&A will be held April 30 from 4 to 5 p.m. Please register in advance to participate. 

"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.
