Navigating Uncomfortable Situations Monday, August 3 from 12pm to 1:30pm PT
Let's get comfortable talking about the uncomfortable! In this webinar four former community college students will share uncomfortable situations they experienced on their path through STEM, including systemic discrimination, navigating higher education while being part of a historically excluded group, and other challenges. Following the panel, this webinar will create a safe space for participants to ask questions and discuss their personal experiences. Panelists will then share solutions on how to navigate uncomfortable situations moving forward.
Fighting the Mom Penalty in the COVID Era Wednesday, August 5 from 12pm to 1pm PT
In the midst of a global pandemic, many scientists are now working from home. This presents new challenges for parent and caregiver scientists who are now expected to work full-time while caring for others, which disproportionately falls to women. Dubbed the “mom penalty” in academia , this webinar will address the problem and give attendees the tools, templates and solutions to bring to their home institutions in order to advocate that scientific institutions act now to support their parent and caregiver scientists.
