Read the letter from the founder of the WiSTEM Initiative at After iGEM
Dear Readers,
I am ecstatic to announce the launch of WiSTEM Magazine “The Equality Pursuit”.
The launch of ‘The Equality Pursuit’ marks the end of the remarkable iGEM 2021 season and the start of the new season for After iGEM. For us, as WiSTEM, this magazine highlights the efforts and motivation we put into this first-ever WiSTEM After iGEM issue to inspire girls into STEM careers as well as motivate everyone identifying as women already in their STEM paths.
We hope that “The Equality Pursuit” will inspire you to pursue the careers you always dreamt about, and we hope this gives you enough motivation to take the next step towards your dreams. From the team of five in 2020 to the team of twenty in 2021, WiSTEM continues to empower women and provide support towards careers in STEM and SynBio. This magazine represents the inspiring women and their journeys so far - all aimed at you and your personal development.
With this magazine we want to celebrate WiSTEM as an initiative and as a community we represent - our fellow women with a passion for sciences. We are looking forward to the growth of WiSTEM initiative as well as the whole women in STEM community.
Sincerely,
Nemira Zilinskaite
WiSTEM After iGEM Founder
