Dear Ivana,

aplogize for my late reply. I was looking for the correct answer to your question. So, unfortunately, the GEMS WG have no funds at the moment to support partcipation to this conference.

I'm sorry that I don't have better news.

All best

Dear Maja, 

Unfortunately for me I won't be able to attend the conference.

However, given that there is no conference fee, I wonder if the organisers could make a live stream video so we can follow the meeting online.

Thanks in advance. 

All the best, 

Monica.

Dear Monica,

I try to get in touch with organisers at SNSF and check about live streaming (good idea about that), and as soon as I have the info - I'll let you know.

Dear all,

Apologies for late reply.
I got in touch with the organizers of the event Alexandra Achermann and Maya Widmer from Swiss National Science Foundation.
Unfortunately, there will be not live-streaming of the event, but the speakers’ slides will be published on website after the event (provided that they have the speakers’ consent). The website of the event is here: http://www.snf.ch/en/researchinFocus/newsroom/Pages/news-160427-snsf-conference-on-gender-and-excellence.aspx

I hope this helps

All the best

Dear Monica, dear all,

Well, in the case that speakers' slides will not be available on the events' website, I already spoke with Gianna about giving the report to the group after the event.
