Wikipedia: WikiProject Women’s History/Laboratory of Molecular Biology 2013

Wikimedia UK, the MRC, the Royal Society and Cambridge AWiSE are organising a Women in Science themed editing event on Monday 25 November 2013 in Cambridge to celebrate Women in Science. We would like to create or add to the Wikipedia pages of female scientists (who tend to be under-represented on Wikipedia), and attract more female editors to the project. The panel discussion will also serve as a forum on women’s experiences in science and diversity in the workforce more generally.

• Date: Monday 25 November 2013; in two parts – editathon runs 10.30-18.00; panel 13.00-14.30.
• Venue: [1], MRC Laboratory of Molecular Biology, Francis Crick Avenue, Cambridge Biomedical Campus, Cambridge CB2 0QH
