Brief introductory remarks and/or a panel discussion will prime discussion over lunch in smaller breakout groups, where participants can freely discuss issues affecting their career goals and overall well-being, such as managing technical demands of research, managing the job market, managing work-life balance, and so on. Our aim is to create a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment where connections of all types (mentor-mentee, peer-peer) can be made and persist over future conference Organizers: Maria Chang, Paula Rodriguez-Diaz Additional information can be found Here or by email maria.chang@ibm.com .
