Abstract

With science still seen as a male-dominated profession, are we doing enough to help others to pursue neuroscience careers, and to be satisfied and successful in their work? The session’s panellists include inspiring women in neuroscience from a variety of backgrounds, topics and career stages. Each panellist will introduce themselves, briefly discuss their career progression and current work, before we join together in a panel discussion including delegates questions. Inspired by the ‘Picture a Scientist’ documentary and the ‘leaky pipeline’ theory, we will discuss the challenges that face women in neuroscience and how these could be tackled. As well as a source of inspiration and advice, this session will promote opportunities to network, including through a new network specific to women in neuroscience: with aims to enable fellow female neuroscientists to form mentorship bonds, strike up collaborations, and share information about relevant scientific training and/or funding opportunities.
