Piaggio” Research Center of the University of Pisa together with some representatives of GenS, a Community dedicated to female empowerment in the world of STEM: the founder Alessandra Cravetto, Chiara Pacchioli, Gaia Contu, and Vanessa Mainardi.
The appointment is the first of the “Scintille: women who do science” review organized by the University Sustainable Development Commission (CoSA) with the coordination of the professor Renata Pepicelli.
“Scintille: women doing science” is a series of meetings aimed at the university community, teachers and students of local high schools and the general public. The objective is to discuss the role of women in STEM, i.e. scientific, technological disciplines , engineering and mathematics, in changing the scientific landscape, despite the persistent gender disparity. The cycle aims to be an opportunity to share experiences of women who “do science” according to a logic of intergenerational dialogue.
