Physics & Astronomy Seminar: "So What is it Actually Like Being Black/Queer/Transgender in Physics?"

"So What is it Actually Like Being Black/Queer/Transgender in Physics?" Grey Batie, Ph.D. Candidate, UC Berkeley, Department of Nuclear Engineering is presenting. Pizza lunch.


Science is fun, but sometimes it can be lonely if you’re the only one who looks like you in your laboratory. Come to this talk to hear about the stories and experiences of a current queer, black trans graduate student, and how they found their place in their field.

Topics include diversity, inclusion, intersectionality, and how to make the STEM fields a place where everyone feels comfortable, seen, and respected. This session is open to anyone and everyone!


Informal conversation with speaker prior to talk, 10-11:15 AM in 159 OLRI.
