We had so much fun at La Madeleine last year that this year's Global Women's Breakfast event, sponsored by the Women Chemists Committee, returned to the same location! A small but lively group of 8 women attended - we networked and had many fascinating discussions over breakfast. The conversations ranged from the benefits and drawbacks of AI for job applications and scientific writing, the number of careers where having a chemistry background can be surprisingly useful, and the challenge of communicating the value of science to students of all ages when they ask "but when am I going to use this in the real world?"

Looking for a similar forum for discussion but missed out on this year's GWB? Consider participating in the ongoing Houston EWOC (Empowering Women in Organic Chemistry) Journal Club! Articles are selected to be of general interest to chemists of all disciplines and genders, and ACS-GHS members are welcome to attend.
