This symposium includes a series of panel discussions on a theme chosen to help women navigate the process of moving from their post-graduate work into a satisfying career. Due to a wide variety of factors (biological and sociological), academic women, particularly in the sciences, tend to find the transition from their post-graduate work to a career a difficult one to navigate. As a consequence, women tend to be less well represented in careers in the sciences. Our symposium is designed to give women the tools and necessary support system with the ultimate goal of addressing this gap.
