“It’s crucial for women to see and hear from strong female leaders in the field who are paving the way, and in some cases, shaking things up,” said Keller. “Far fewer women remain in STEM occupations in comparison to those who graduate with a STEM degree. Why is that? Representation matters and Q&A discussions like the WISE panel is what inspires more women to speak up and stay in their profession.”
The panel discussion will be held on Wednesday, June 26, 2019, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. PDT.
