We will be back on the 30 September 2015 with  Basabdatta Sen Bhattacharya from the School of Engineering with a talk about collaboration in research.

The 2nd meeting of Women into Research started to deconstruct and develop some ideas about what we mean by perceived barriers to research. This excellent session was led by Sarah Amsler in the School of Education, where she highlighted a number of both structural and interpersonal issues that may affect women’s contributions to research activities. You can find Sarah’s slides by following the link below

Sarah also provided an extensive reading list from which she drew from (see below)
