Building on the success of previous editions, this multidisciplinary event organized by the Gender Equity Movement (GEM) aims to raise awareness about the significance of diversity, equity, and inclusion within scientific communities and society at large.
This year, we invite you to explore the construction of gendered expectations through a scientific lens, bridging neurobiology, psychology, and the humanities. Our sessions will traverse the human lifespan and the animal kingdom, examining the emergence of stereotypes in the education of boys, the biological and social reality of paternal instinct, and the diversity of leadership styles across species.
The event will be accessible live online (with simultaneous English-to-French translation available). Replays will be available on the GEM YouTube channel.
Note on Attendance:
Onsite seating is strictly limited to 150 participants. If you are unsure of your ability to attend in person, please register for Online attendance to allow others to participate onsite. A waiting list will be active once the gauge is full.
