Women in science

The documentary "Picture a scientist" by Sharon Shattuck and Ian Cheney was presented in the "Science Cinema Ingolstadt" event series. The film, which was released in 2020, is about the three scientists Nancy Hopkins (biologist), Raychelle Burks (chemist) and Jane Willenbring (geologist) and their experiences as women in science. The film was presented at the Tribeca Film Festival.

In the run-up to the presentation, there was a panel discussion in which the Ingolstadt scientists Prof. Patrizia Heinl (TH Ingolstadt), Prof. Dr. Nadja Ray (Women's Representative of the Faculty of Mathematics and Geography, KU Eichstätt-Ingolstadt) and Prof. Dr. Michaela Regler (Women's Representative of the TH Ingolstadt) talked to Dr. Marion Kühn about their experiences and challenges as women in science.
