SWE Central Illinois and SME Central Illinois chapter are partnering to create a unique opportunity for their members to watch the movie Picture a Scientist for free. Please sign up using your email address.

Once you sign up, we will share two opportunities with you to watch the documentary. We will have a group watch party on June 11th between 5 pm to 6:30 pm with a 15 minute discussion after. We will also share the  streaming link with folks who sign up using this form and they can watch the movie any time between June 11th and June 13th.

SYNOPSIS
PICTURE A SCIENTIST chronicles the groundswell of researchers who are writing a new chapter for women scientists. Biologist Nancy Hopkins, chemist Raychelle Burks, and geologist Jane Willenbring lead viewers on a journey deep into their own experiences in the sciences, ranging from brutal harassment to years of subtle slights. Along the way, from cramped laboratories to spectacular field stations, we encounter scientific luminaries - including social scientists, neuroscientists, and psychologists - who provide new perspectives on how to make science itself more diverse, equitable, and open to all.
