Come along to An Evening with 500 Queer Scientist to hear vibrant conversations and stories from LGBTQI scientists in Sydney who have successfully followed a career path in science.

This event will be moderated by Dr Alice Motion, Associate Professor, Chemist and Science Communicator at the University of Sydney. Over a glass of wine and nibbles, the conversation will provoke positive debate and help promote science as an inclusive, forward-thinking, and viable career path for bright young queer minds!

The 500 Queer Scientists initiative launched in June 2018 and highlights the real need for increased visibility of LGBTQI scientists in academia. The issues are complex, but visibility and role models are part of the solution.

Following the success of sold-out events over the past two years, we are proud to bring it to you again in 2021 with an entirely new panel of speakers!

Each ticket includes one drink on arrival and light refreshments after the panel discussion.
