BIAS is back for Science Week 2024!
We hosted two in-person events this year centered on women’s health. Join us in Dublin at the picturesque Pillar Room of the Rotunda Hospital for an engaging day of dialogue and connection. This year's focus will be on breastfeeding and menopause, two vital aspects of a woman’s life where biases and stereotypes continue to exist.
