Women have been active in science since the earliest formal scientific inquiry, often acting as assistants to their fathers, brothers, or husbands, but how we talk about women in science — and their work — started to change after the Renaissance. Join us for a pop-up exhibit celebrating groundbreaking scientists from a variety of fields, including astronomy, physics, geology, and life sciences, both in the wider scientific community and at Yale.
Featured scientists include:
This workshop, presented by Yale Physics Assistant Professor Chiara Mingarelli, will focus on how to prepare for the academic job market, including:
- how to find and apply for postdoc and faculty positions
- how to prepare your application package, including CV, research statement, teaching statement, etc.
- having a successful postdoctoral experience, and becoming an assistant professor
