Join us for the launch of the SciMoms Network, a new community created to connect and empower mothers in STEMM. This event is an open and welcoming space for our members to meet, share experiences, and build meaningful connections across disciplines and career stages.
During this interactive session, we will:
Introduce the vision and goals of the SciMoms Network
Discuss how members can get involved and contribute to shaping the community
Explore ways Mothers in Science can better support you through advocacy, resources, and networking
Create space for open conversation and connection among members
Mothers in STEMM often navigate their careers in isolation, balancing research, family, and systemic challenges without adequate support. The SciMoms Network aims to change that by fostering collaboration, visibility, and solidarity.
Come be part of the conversation and help us build a stronger, more connected community of mothers in STEMM!

Host: Dr Christina Ford is a senior coordinator at UNC Chapel Hill, overseeing expert panels for ClinGen, a public genomics database. The daughter of Cuban immigrants and the first in her family to attend college, she earned a PhD in Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology from the University of Miami. She then went on a 15-year career break to raise three children, during which she stayed engaged through bioethics, biostatistics, and data management work. She returned to cancer research at UNC, and seeing that little had changed for mothers in academia, Christina joined Mothers in Science to help create change.
