Sept 16, 2026 | 12:00-1:00pm ET
Kick off the fall with an evening designed to help the Academy community build connections, exchange career insights, and explore the many ways scientists lead, communicate, and create impact across STEM. Open to attendees of all genders and career stages, this interactive in-person program will spotlight leading women in STEM as role models and conversation facilitators while inviting the full Academy community to engage in practical discussion about scientific careers today.
Participants will take part in three themed breakout sessions selected from five available conversation topics. Each session will be guided by women scientists and STEM leaders who will draw on their own lived experience to support candid, practical discussion about building visibility, navigating career transitions, strengthening professional networks, leading from any role, and applying STEM expertise across sectors. The evening will also include unstructured networking over light refreshments, creating additional space to continue conversations, exchange ideas, and make new connections.
