About our WiMLDS Meetups:

Our WiMLDS meetups aim to inspire, educate, and support women and gender minorities. In WiMLDS events, we introduce amazing women and gender minorities in ML/DS, each of whom will give us a glimpse into their respective fields and share their experiences of being an ML/DS scientist or engineer in academia and industry.

We are inclusive to anyone who supports our cause regardless of gender identity or technical background. All genders are cordially invited to attend this event.
