PICTURE OF A SCIENTIST is a feature-length documentary film chronicling the groundswell of researchers who are writing a new chapter for women scientists. A biologist, a chemist and a geologist lead viewers on a journey deep into their own experiences in the sciences, overcoming brutal harassment, institutional discrimination, and years of subtle slights to revolutionize the culture of science. From cramped laboratories to spectacular field stations, we also encounter scientific luminaries who provide new perspectives on how to make science itself more diverse, equitable, and open to all.
ESA will feature an onsite viewing. After viewing the film, join Drs. Susan Weller, Laura Lavine, and Tim Kring for a discussion focusing on the role of universities and ESA in creating an environment in which women scientists excel.
Complimentary virtual viewing will be available from October 20 - 27. Use the password: entsoc1020 to access the film starting on the 20th.
