On February 8, 2024, the Women in Innovation & Technology (WIT) program hosted a special virtual event, “The Resilient Inventor/Entrepreneur: Managing Your Mindset”. In this live Zoom session, Dr. Sharon Milgram, Director of the NIH’s Office of Intramural Training and Education, provided practical, hands-on guidance to managing common mental barriers that can keep women academic researchers from seeing themselves as inventors and entrepreneurs.
In 2014, the Washington University Office of Technology Management introduced the Women in Innovation & Technology program to address the persistent under-representation of women in technology commercialization efforts. WIT seeks to close this gender gap by providing women academic researchers with relevant education, resources and networking opportunities.
