The Thinking Spot
All women, especially women of color, trans women, and women with disabilities, continue to be underrepresented in STEM fields. Our annual Women in Science event seeks to inspire all young people to see themselves as capable innovators through activities and interactions with real-life creators, scientists, engineers, and more.
