Nurturing a More Inclusive STEM Enterprise by Understanding our Biases 1:15 pm - 2:45 pm, Room 324/325/326 We are all biased. Google’s PeopleAnalytics suggests that we as people can only consciously process about one millionth of the information that we receive at any moment. Instead, we rely heavily on our unconscious reasoning abilities to make decisions. Even though we scientists are trained to be objective and evidence based, we, too, use cognitive short- cuts in our every day interactions. This means we rely on our expectation biases, e.g. what we think we think about categories of people, things, situations. This behavior leads to unconscious errors in decision making that leads to discrimination in science against people who do not meet the stereotypical description of what a scientist looks like. This session will approach the phenomenon of unconscious bias as a science problem by examining the data in this area and by discussing tools that we can all use to nurture a more inclusive scientific enterprise. Attendees are encouraged to learn about their own biases by completing the Project Implicit Gender-Science IAT, Race IAT and Sexuality IAT tests at https:// implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/ Speaker Karen Fleming, Johns Hopkins University The Nuts and Bolts The National Institutes of Health is the world’s largest funder of funda- mental biomedical research. You have likely spent years training and are now ready to apply for a NIH grant. But where do you start? At this session, program directors and officers with expertise in biophysics will be providing details on the NIH grant-making process as it stands in 2019, with a particular emphasis on grant writing and submission for new and early career investigators. Session Organizer Peter Preusch, Biophysics Branch Chief in the Division of Biophysics, Biomedical Technology, and Computational Biosciences, NIH. Industry Panel 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm, Room 327/328/329 Come join us for a Q&A discussion about science in industry. Hear from a panel of scientists about their career in industry. Learn about the differ- ent roles and positions and get perspective about how you can tailor your current research experience to align with industry needs. Speakers Sonia Gregory, GSK Vaccines – Chair Wayne Harshbarger, GSK Vaccines Joanna Swain, Cogen Therapeutics Adam Zwolak, Janssen BioTherapeutics Angela Ballesteros Morcillo, National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS-NIH) Jeanne Small, Quantum Northwest, Inc. Meagan Small, U.S. Army Research Laboratory of Preparing Your NIH Grant 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm, Room 321/322/323
