Picture a Scientist: Gender equality in science
Documentary screening and panel-debate
Join us for the screening of "Picture a Scientist", a powerful documentary that highlights gender inequality in academia.
Picture a Scientist is a compelling documentary that sheds light on the challenges female researchers have faced in their careers. This equally infuriating and inspiring film tells the story of a handful of brave women fighting to change the system and is essential viewing for anyone interested in science. To mark the occasion of Women’s Day, the event aims to raise awareness about gender inequality in academia and provide insight into the experiences of female professors and researchers.

Following the screening, Letizia Jaccheri, Patrick Mikalef, and Kristin Ytterstad Pettersen, three professors from NTNU, will join us as guest speakers for an open discussion, sharing their perspectives on the challenges women in research face—both globally and in Norway. This is a unique opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations and gain a deeper understanding of the academic landscape at NTNU.
Don’t miss this chance to learn, reflect, and contribute to an important dialogue on equality in research!
The screening will take place at either Nova or Prinsen Cinema depending on number of participants. You will find updated information about location on this page one weeks prior to the event.
