Join us as the spring Graduate School of Oceanography Public Lecture Series continues!

Please register. 

To kick off Women’s History Month, GSO is exploring the diverse experiences of women in ocean science. Gender diversity in oceanography has been improving in recent decades, yet women and those who identify as non-binary remain underrepresented, particularly those belonging to marginalized groups. Join a conversation with three scientists to discuss their research, and their perspectives on how the “leaky pipeline” of gender disparity in marine science can be fixed. 

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and refreshments will be served. Program begins at 6 p.m.

Featuring:

• Katy Croff Bell, Ph.D. ‘11 (Founder and president, Ocean Discovery League)
• Fenix Garcia Tigreros (Assistant professor, URI Graduate School of Oceanography)
• Rebecca Robinson (Professor, URI Graduate School of Oceanography)

Moderator: Paula Bontempi, Ph.D. ‘01 (Dean, URI Graduate School of Oceanography)

If you are unable to attend in person, you can watch the event online starting at 6 p.m.
