DESCRIPTION:Visibility is important if you want to get on. In science\, as
 king questions in a public setting gives you that visibility. Data from Ba
 braham suggests that not everyone asks questions and we have taken steps t
 o encourage people to develop those skills.\n\nJoin Gillian’s talk to fi
 nd out more about the science behind this issue. And perhaps it will chang
 e your future tendency to publically question and also change your visibil
 ity.\n\n\nDr. Gillian Sandstrom is a Senior Lecturer in Psychology at the 
 University of Essex. Her main line of research focuses on minimal social i
 nteractions and the barriers to communication\; she has spent a lot of tim
 e trying to understand exactly why people are reluctant to talk to strange
 rs. She shares her personal #Talking2Strangers stories on Twitter @Gillian
 Social. She has an undergraduate degree in Computer Science\, and worked a
 s a computer programmer for 10 years. Her experiences working in technolog
 y are part of the reason she’s interested in studying the leaky STEM pip
 eline\, and other research questions related to gender.\n\nJoin the webina
