To highlight the profiles and successes of ASI women
On the International Day of Women and Girls in Science- the 11th of February 2019- the ASI Women’s Initiative launched #ASIWomensInitiative.
Using this hashtag in combination with #IAmAnImmunologist on Twitter, we will profile women and their successes within the immunological community in Australia and New Zealand.
If you, or someone you know, has had a recent major win- a successful grant or Fellowship, a major paper, a high-profile presentation, media coverage- we would love to share that with the ASI community on social media. So let us know! Please email Gabriela Khoury, ASI Social Media Coordinator if you have some great news about ASI women that you want to share or if you are interested in being profiled for #IAmAnImmunologist.
To see information on our celebrated ASI women, please search for #ASIWomensInitiative on Twitter!
