  • Meet inspiring women in environmental science, computer science, coding, health care and medicine. They’ll share advice, encouragement and ideas for how to get on — and stay on — the STEM pathway.
  • Hear from Oscar winner Geena Davis about the fascinating research her organization has done. Did you know that harmful media portrayals of scientists can affect our perceptions of STEM jobs?
