Screening of the documentary “Picture a Scientist”

To mark February 11—International Day of Women and Girls in Science—the association Femmes et Sciences, the Charles Coulomb Laboratory, Polytech Montpellier, and the Faculty of Sciences at the University of Montpellier are hosting a screening of the documentary *Picture a Scientist* (original version with French subtitles).

This film gives a voice to female researchers and sheds light on the mechanisms of sexism and gender inequality in academia, as well as their impact on scientific careers. Through powerful testimonials and insightful analysis, *Picture a Scientist* invites us to collectively reflect on our practices, our work environments, and the possible avenues for action toward more inclusive research.

The one-hour screening will be followed by a discussion session, during which we will share perspectives, questions, and reflections on these issues that affect our entire community, regardless of our status or field of study.

The event is open to the entire scientific community in Montpellier (students and staff).
