Description

 

This is the first pilot phase of an interesting workshop series dedicated to doctoral students, organized by GENERA (Gender Equality Network in the European Research Area). GENERA Network originated from the EU-funded GENERA project and its purpose is to enhance gender equality in physics and to create a more diverse and inclusive culture in academia in Europe and worldwide. The network was established in August 2018 and is based on a Memorandum of Understanding. Meanwhile over 40 institutions have joined GENERA Network.

The aim of the workshop series is to design and implement workshops on career development issues for early career researchers bringing in a gender and diversity perspective.

This first workshop deals with data, implicit bias and myths of excellence in physics and includes three interesting talks and is moderated by Lisa Kamlade. She studies business psychology (M.Sc.) and is a project manager at DESY in Hamburg. In the GENERA project she was the Implementation Manager coordinating between all relevant stakeholders involved in the implementation of a Gender Equality Plan at DESY. Besides her involvement in several EU-funded projects she coordinates the GENERA Network.
