This series will spotlight and celebrate women in ocean science who are walking a path that is, in many ways, more difficult than that of male researchers and whose achievements are all the greater for it. The talks are open to everyone, at any stage of their career and to any gender.
Come along if you want to learn about different research areas in the marine sector, find out where your career path can take you, and discover what challenges women face on their way.
