Supporter Central

I'm a firm believer that inclusive science is the only science. As a white, cisgender, male, I need to be an advocate for more inclusive science, especially in computational science and biology. This organization is fantastic, and I look forward to spreading the word to all my current and future mentees.

I'm a co-chair of the Mentoring Program for the Massachusetts chapter of AWIS (Association of Women in Science). I would love to stay in contact so we can share information about our mentoring program and other AWIS-Mass resources your members could benefit from!

I have a PhD in Biology and expertise in the fields of population and statistical genomics. I'm happy to mentor or collaborate with any of the woman in this group looking to advance their careers. I am also looking for collaborators to help advance diversity and create an inclusive environment in computational biology through Virtual Lab Meeting Training Programs and the development of teaching modules.

I'm a black guy, and I'm really interested in having more female folks in the comp-bio space.

I look forward to reading about your research. I just started my post-doc in computational immunology (simulating T-cell collectives). Feel free to reach out if you have questions or would like to connect!

Boston Women in Bioinformatics meetup group provides a platform for women and welcomes allies in bioinformatics for conversations, trainings, workshops, panels and much more, with an open mind!

I teach math and stats at a small Canadian college. My background is mathematical biology and number theory. I aim to amplify the voices of Black womxn in STEM by sharing their work in my classroom whenever possible

I teach a Computational Modeling course for 11th and 12th grade students at a high school in NYC, and I'm seeking lots of varied sources to contribute to what we see and do in the class. Students are especially interested in what kind of careers this work could connect to because they usually haven't thought about many of the topics in this class before! The class is offered through the science department at my school and is also focused on social justice topics once we get past some initial intro-to-coding work. This group seems amazing! And thank you for the things you have available for us to learn from! ❤️

I recently graduated with my PhD in Genome Sciences and now work as a computational biologist/data scientist at a biotech company.
I am happy to talk about applying to graduate school and transitioning from academia to biotech.

We need our young women to know you exists. Unfortunately, mainstream media is not going to highlight the scientific and engineering achievements of Black Women. We must share this information through social media.

I am a computational scientist in the precision medicine space aiming to mentor.

I am a postdoc in statistical genetics and received my PhD working on human population genetics. I would be happy to contribute as a mentor or collaborator.
