About this Event
The Quantitative Biosciences Institute (QBI) at UCSF is presenting a live QBI TV panel discussion titled, “The Way Forward: Recognizing Women’s Contributions to Science”, to highlight the need to increase the inclusion and acknowledgment of women in science.
The goal of this panel will be to discuss the systematic exclusion of women in science and the vast disparities that exist in the representation of men vs. women in the field. The conversation will also aim to shine a light on what can be done moving forward to acknowledge women’s contributions to science and ultimately create a more equitable system of success.
