To celebrate International Day of Women and Girls in Science (11th Feb) and International Women’s Day (8th March) we have organized screening sessions of a famous documentary “Picture a Scientist”.

This movie, by Sharon Shattuck and Ian Cheney, is a feature-length documentary film chronicling the groundswell of researchers who are writing a new chapter for women scientists. A biologist, a chemist and a geologist lead viewers on a journey deep into their own experiences in the sciences, overcoming brutal harassment, institutional discrimination, and years of subtle slights to revolutionize the culture of science. From cramped laboratories to spectacular field stations, we also encounter scientific luminaries who provide new perspectives on how to make science itself more diverse, equitable, and open to all.

The trailer of the documentary is available here: https://vimeo.com/405966332
