Through the Equal Opportunities Committee at the Disciplinary Domain of Medicine and Pharmacy, Uppsala University has acquired the rights to show the documentary Picture a Scientist to all students and employees.
The film, which made the official selection at the Tribeca Film Festival last year, highlights inequalities and challenges for female scientists in the academic world. In the film, researchers Nancy Hopkins, Raychelle Burks and Jane Willenbring describe their experiences and what we can do to make the academic world more inclusive.
Employees at the university will have access to the link and password on the Staff Portal 48 hours before the film becomes available.
As the screening rights only apply to employees and students at the Uppsala University, it is important not to spread the link and password outside the university.
