Description

Women make up half of the total U.S. college-educated workforce, but only 29% of the science and engineering workforce.

On May 8th, we’ll hear from the 29% that are united by a common drive, a hunger for change, and a curiosity to push beyond the status quo.

Join the University City Science Center, CIC Philadelphia, BioLabs@CIC, FirstHand, and Venture Cafe for Representing the Underrepresented: Women STEM Breakfast & Panel.

Panelists:
​

Melina Blees, PhD

Alicia C. McDonald, PhD, MPH

Department of Public Health Sciences

Moderator: Maya Heiland
Program Manager, FirstHand

We’ll provide breakfast, lightning panel discussions surrounding the experiences of women in STEM here in Philadelphia.

This event will have an ASL interpreter.
