Conference
The 5th International Day of Women in Science 2026

We are delighted to invite all Weizmann Institute of Science community members to a series of engaging short TED-style lectures by Weizmann's women scientists, covering a wide range of fields. 

Each lecture will be a 12-minute talk about your research, by submitting an abstract via the following link. The abstract needs to include a title and the talk's main idea or main results. It should be written at a level appropriate for scientific audiences of different backgrounds. 

The abstract will be selected by an internal committee composed of representatives from different faculties at Weizmann.

The accepted lecture will follow a special science communication course given by Meital Salmor.
