By addressing unique challenges, providing networking opportunities, and highlighting role models, the event contributes to a more diverse and innovative field.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">In many scientific fields women are still underrepresented, including electron microscopy. This event provides a platform to increase visibility and representation of women in the field, encouraging more participation and retention. By creating a space for women to connect with peers and potential mentors we want to foster professional relationships and collaborations that might not occur in traditional conferences.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Women in science often face unique challenges, including gender bias and work-life balance issues. This event addresses these challenges through targeted discussions and workshops. By highlighting the achievements of women in electron microscopy we want to inspire attendees to aspire to leadership positions and take on more significant roles within their organizations and the field at large.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Importantly, WeM is not only for women. Men are warmly welcomed to participate as colleagues, collaborators, and allies. Their involvement strengthens the dialogue, broadens perspectives, and helps build a culture of equity and inclusion that benefits the entire scientific community.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">By bringing together participants from diverse backgrounds and specializations, WeM sparks new ideas, perspectives, and collaborations\u2014driving innovation in electron microscopy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Due to the enormous success of WeM 2025 <a href=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/index.php\/conferences\/wem\/wem-2025-media\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #df05b0;\">(see feedback collection here)<\/span><\/strong><\/a> the next edition is planned for 2027.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Keynote Speakers will be announced soon<\/h2>\n<hr>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Panel Discussion Members will be announced soon<\/h2>\n<hr>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-9f6d112a\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns has-3-columns has-desktop-equal-layout has-tablet-equal-layout has-mobile-collapsedRows-layout has-vertical-unset\"><div class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-columns-overlay\"><\/div><div class=\"innerblocks-wrap\">\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-d2011b82\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"480\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/planner-4884740_640.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15562\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/planner-4884740_640.jpg 480w, https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/planner-4884740_640-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/planner-4884740_640-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/planner-4884740_640-375x375.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-black-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" style=\"background-color:#a2d8f0\">Program, Dates, Deadlines<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">The event program and information about the speakers will be available here.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column-a6023ee4\" class=\"wp-block-themeisle-blocks-advanced-column\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-style-default\"><a href=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/index.php\/conferences\/wem_2027\/venue-travel-information-wem-2\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/187529c79c259271.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8456\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover\" srcset=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/187529c79c259271.jpg 750w, https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/187529c79c259271-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/187529c79c259271-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/er-c.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/187529c79c259271-375x375.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-16018d1d wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-black-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-text-align-center wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/er-c.org\/index.php\/conferences\/wem_2027\/venue-travel-information-wem-2\/\" style=\"background-color:#a2d8f0\">Venue &amp; Travel<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">WeM 2027 will be held at the Campus of Forschungszentrum J\u00fclich, Germany.
