Conference proposal: Title: Staying in the Academic Pipeline: Growing Professionally in an Economic Drought

为认知科学领域的妇女，特别是处于学术生涯早期阶段的妇女设计了三个讲习班。研究和经济分析预计，经济危机对女性的影响比对男性的影响更大。研讨会的重点是保持知名度和生产力的策略，包括为博士前，博士后和早期职业科学家撰写资助申请，并将在心理学学会，认知科学学会和心理科学协会举行。研讨会将采取公共论坛的形式，邀请演讲者小组成员，就在个人和机构层面上提高女性认知科学专业地位的最佳做法展开讨论。通过与这些成熟的学会合作，研讨会将最大限度地发挥对认知科学高级学术职位代表性仍然不足的群体的外展潜力。

Three workshops are designed for women in cognitive science, especially women in the early stages of their academic career. Research and economic analyses expect the impact of the economic crisis to be more detrimental for females than for males. The workshops focus on strategies for maintaining visibility and productivity, including grant application writing for predoctoral, postdoctoral, and early career scientists, and will take place at the Psychonomic Society, the Cognitive Science Society, and the Association for Psychological Science. The workshops will take the form of a public forum with invited speaker-panelists to initiate discussion about best practices for the professional advancement of women in cognitive science at the individual and institutional level. By partnering with these established societies, the workshops will maximize the outreach potential to a group that continues to be underrepresented in senior academic positions in the cognitive sciences.
