Resilience of (Women in) Chemistry:

Division/Committee: [WCC] Women Chemists Committee

The symposium "Resilience of (Women in) Chemistry" will focus on the challenges women chemists faced during 2020 and how they overcame them, including insights into the sources of their resilience. The intent is to provide participants with anecdotal data to contextualize the events of the past year. Some presentations could resonate with and help frame attendees' personal experiences, while others could bring attention to unperceived challenges in our community. This event may not only be cathartic and inspirational but also provide a historic record that will contribute to the documentation of a shift in cultural ethos.
