Panel Discussion

Addressing gender bias is crucial for fostering an inclusive environment. Hence, experiences and strategies for overcoming gender bias in academia and research are shared through a moderated discussion of a diverse panel of women in electron microscopy.

The poster session is scheduled for Tuesday evening and open for all participants. If you are interested in presenting your work, please submit an abstract using our template until December 8th, 2026.
