VIRTUAL: Eileen Pollack Speaks on Science as a Boy's Club: a collaborative event between the Women in Science at Yale and Nencki, Poland

The Women in Science at Yale (WISAY) and the Women in Science at the Nencki Institute (WISaN) in Poland have joined together to host a virtual discussion about strategies to counteract bias faced by women in STEM, and their lack of representation in the upper echelons of the academic system. For the event, we’ve invited Prof. Eileen Pollack to lead the discussion. She is one of the first two women to earn a Bachelors of Science from the Physics Department at Yale, and the author of the book “The Only Woman in the Room: Why Science Is Still a Boys’ Club”.
