(Tal Rabin requested to post this so I am doing so. This post
is essentially her email, so call it a guest post.)
There will be a
Women In Theory workshop for
female graduate students in theoretical computer science in
Princeton on June 19-23, 2010(see
here)
Tell all of the female students in your department about this workshop.
The workshop will have first-rate technical content and we also hope
that it will help encourage female researchers and perhaps in the long run
increase the unfortunately low number of women in our field. We
will supply rooms and food for the participants, and will
probably also be able to cover at least part if not all of their
travel expenses - please let us know if that will be an issue. There may
be a nominal registration fee.
The format will be similar to the WIT 2008 workshop. You can view
information on that workshop at:

and view a video of WIT08 at:

For any questions, please email WomenInTheory2010@gmail.com .
The deadline to apply is February 1st, 2010.
I see Boaz is listed as a local chair. Will he still be local when this workshop happens?
ReplyDeleteFor what do we need women in Theory if there are not even enough jobs for men?
