Lunchtime networking event: "When to give birth? The experiences of researchers regarding childbirth and childcare"
We're excited to announce that our lunchtime networking event, a chance for female researchers and students to chat during their lunch break, will be held again after a long hiatus. The theme is "When to Have Children? The Realities of Childbirth and Childcare for Researchers." Two female researchers, each with three children, will give presentations, followed by a free discussion (a lively chat). This is a topic that's hard to come by elsewhere, so why not take this opportunity to share your thoughts with other female researchers? Sorry there's not much time left until the deadline!

Recruitment for Assistant Professor, Faculty of Health Sciences
The Office for Supporting Female Researchers has received a job posting from the Graduate School of Health Sciences stating that they "welcome active applications from women" for a faculty position. The research fields are "(1) Biochemistry and analytical chemistry related to lipid components of living organisms, (2) Cell biology, preferably related to mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, and (3) Mass spectrometry, especially based on analytical chemistry or organic chemistry." If your research field is close to these, please take a look.
