Conference

The Oxbridge Women in Computer Science Conference is an annual conference that aims to bring together junior and senior female computer scientists at Cambridge and Oxford, encourage collaboration through formal and informal discussion, and give a perfect opportunity for young researchers to present their research and get valuable feedback in a very open, friendly, and informal environment. The conference includes talks by key speakers and a career panel with members from both academia and industry who share their experiences with the participants.
