Human beings have long called on science to define concepts of sex and gender and used them to characterize, classify, and divide. On Friday, March 13, the Committee on Women in Science, Engineering, and Medicine will host a Women's History Month event on Science, Sex, and Gender. Moderated by Harper Jean Tobin (National Center for Transgender Equality), a panel of experts will explore the role of science in evolving and expanding notions of sex and gender in a discussion that centers the lived experiences of transgender and intersex women.
Panelists include
Harper Jean Tobin, National Center for Transgender Equality (Moderator)
Moya Bailey, Northeastern University
Katie Dalke, Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute
Tori Cooper, Human Rights Campaign
Katrina Karkazis, Brooklyn College/Yale University
