The discussion will be tailored to foster meaningful dialogue about cultivating an inclusive and equitable workplace for all.

The panel will follow a week-long NIH-wide virtual screening of the documentary Picture a Scientist, which chronicles the experiences of three women who are reshaping the culture of science. To learn more, visit https://edi.nih.gov/pictureascientist.
