Due to the generosity of the DPS committee and a donation from the Space Science Institute (thank you!!), we will be able to provide boxed lunch this year!

The deadline for lunch orders is October 1st. You are also welcome to show up at the event with your own lunch, but please still register so we have an idea of number of chairs needed :). (and so we can send you the notes/summary afterwards)

We look forward to seeing you there!

Bring a guest!

Invite a friend or colleague who has never been to a WIPS lunch but might be interested to come with you. We are hoping this will make a wider crowd feel welcome attending. Most of the topics we discuss are of a general professional development nature, but of course we also have a focus on supporting female scientists. As always, you don’t have to be a female scientist to support female scientists :). (Please have them RSVP as well though, so we know to order them a lunch!) http://bit.ly/DPS_WIPS_2015
